At the start of the playoffs, the 2 teams that were the fav were Boston and St louis. Blues are bye bye round 1..bruins are one game away from bye bye...what else do we have. Kings won 2 at anaheim then lost 3 in a row..lol. Pens have these 2 stars in Malkin and Crosby...they are about to blow a 3-1 lead. Black hawks will prob go t a game 7. Maybe the calif golden seals will win the cup from the 1970's. The only current player who has a shot at top 25 of all time..is ovechkin. The talent pool is awful and has been diminished by tight defensive hockey and big strong/fast players. There is zero sense in this product but..there is always a but....long series=more crowd into it and more ticket sales..the product masks itself into a great sport with alot of unknowns..give me the islanders from the 80's..when they swept the oilers in 1983..it was epic to watch how clutch they were.
