Which team do you think reach to the final?

[blueliner27 12]

Edmonton, I think...

Flames.

I think the sharks' top 2 lines will take them far. We should get a decent return for Nabby too. ;)

I'd say San Jose but somewhere in California there is some moron who's been letting his hair grow since the 2004 playoffs and isn't getting it cut until the Sharks win the Cup.

[blueliner27 12]

I think Wilds are possible ones. They've got Pavol Demitra, Kim Johnsson (+ Marian Gaborik.)

My team, the Sharks they're gonna do really well this year.

Except J. Thornton and J. Cheechoo, are there any good (noticiable name) players?

Wow! 4 people chose San Jose!! I think there isn't good defence line....

How often do you watch sharks games? McClaren,Ehrhoff,Carle,and Hannan are all solid defenders.

Geogores(sp) isn't bad either

They felt their d was solid enough for them to be able to get rid of Preissing

It reall is sad that nobody knows who the Sharks are :( . They have solid players from top to bottom. They have a lot of young talent. I think they can go far. :)

I'm a big Ehroff fan, but Hannan is completely overrated and he, among the other 2 listed, are no more than glorified #4 D-men.

Patrick Marleau and Nabakov ain't bad for starters :lol:

Bernier and Michalek are two of the better up and coming players too.

Vancouver enough said.

Um, not really.

[blueliner27 12]

I think San Jose has possibility to win the cup if they have good defences via trade or free agency.

[blueliner27 12]

Um, not really.

I agree... Vancouver totally screwed this year. Signing W. Mitchell? that's not gonna fill the big hole where Jovo left.

Ducks. Look at that defense and goaltending, and still have a damned good offense even without Lupul anymore.

Edmonton got fucked so H-core losing pronger.

Yeah, they have the best D-line in the NHL, PRONGER+NIEDERMAYER (they won't be on same line, maybe, we could see them together in one line only in the power play situation).

Phoenix Coyotes. Nolen and Jovo are looking really good. They won their only home game that I went to and looked very good out there. I haven't watched the other games that they've lost so far, but the team is far better than it was last year.

I think you're right about Hannan for the most part. When he was put on team Canada in '04 all I could say was wtf, but I wouldn't call him a weakness . He does alright in the shutdown roles and doesn't get a lot of penalties. Erhoff and Carle both have a lot of potential and Gorges is getting there for sure. McLaren is good for smashing someone about once a game and doesn't get out of position too much.

COLUMBUS!!!!!................. Ok I'm being Optimistic :lol:

San Jose is not underrated, if they don't win in the next two years or so they are officially the Ottawa Senators of the West. Then again, what has Detroit done lately?

[badsk8ter 0]

I can't believe no one has listed the 5-0 (preseason) Blackhawks!

Nolan sucked in the old NHL, I can't see how he could be good in the new one.
