really? who is the best team, Tampa?


Obviously. They have better goaltending and forwards than Colorado, and they have the best defenseman in the NHL. Sure Tampa Bay has a harder road to the semifinals, but having Colorado over them at a ratio of 7:1 is crazy.

Stanley Cup Champ Predictions:

Colorado 14 people, 55.8% (Me, A_Habs_fan, Drshnuckels, Gmonwy, Brian2016, Tntpod, LeafsFanZay, Oilers4Days, AK, Devil1122, BeterChiarelli, KSIxSKULLS, BuFaLoFaN, moli92)
Vegas 3 people, 12.5% (lebronisdagoat, ChrisPy97, rangersandislandersfan)
Tampa Bay 2 people, 8.3% (EsoYeezus69, CoopsTroops)
Toronto 1 person, 4.2% (mondo)
Boston 1 person, 4.2% (hanson493)
Carolina 1 person, 4.2% (etmuse)
Washington 1 person, 4.2% (Saskleaf)
Florida 1 person, 4.2% (Kotkaniemi15)


Mark my words. 55.8% of people (as well as 8.3%) are going to be disappointed.

It's not that I think the caps will win. It's that I think neither of Tampa or Colorado will. It happens almost ever year: there have only been 3 back to backs in the last 30 years, and 6 presidents trophy winners in the last 30 years. There's no reason to think this year will be any different.

Well, I hate to say I told you so, but...

I told you so.



Though I could be wrong about tampa repeating, I still don't think I will be.
