2019:
Winnipeg over Washington in 6
2020:
Tampa Bay over Edmonton in 6
2021:
Edmonton over Toronto in 5
2022:
Toronto over Edmonton in 6 (yes, the Leafs winning the cup. Really.)
2023:
Edmonton over Boston in 7
2024:
NY Rangers over Arizona in 5
2025:
Washington over Edmonton in 5

Idk, it's kinda early to predict so some of these are kind of random. I know the Rangers are not very good, but that's 6 years from now ... i feel like Lundqvist might retire right after winning the cup in 2024. I really think the Oilers will win multiple cups. The Leafs i think will finally do it soon. The cup comes back to Canada next year, with the Jets winning. What do you think?

Lundqvist will be 42 then. There's no way he'll still be playing in the NHL at that age.

Brodeur is an outlier, not the norm.

Capitals in 2025? Based on what? Their prospect cupboard is pretty bare and Ovechkin would be 40 in 2025?

Any predictions that far into the future are speculative, but this seems like a dart thrown blindfolded.

Ovi would be 39 Sticking Out Tongue

Anyway, Idk who their roster is going to be, so it's kind of early to predict ... kind of a random guess that Ovi's gonna get another one.

I know, but i feel like Hank would go until 42 also ... especially because the Rangers are rebuilding, he may want to stay until the rebuild is done and then play a few years in the playoffs.

You do know the final doesn't usually go to game 7, right?

But i do agree, the Coyotes will probably be in the final sometime soon ... It's weird seeing Ottawa here lol ... Boston over Vancouver in 7 ... i know that lol.

Yeah but I think the teams are getting so good that it’ll be much closer in the near future.

Like a new common thing or just for a short amount of time? I'm actually gonna start a thread about that because it's an interesting question: why does the final usually not go to game 7?
