I have no idea what kind of goal-tending Colorado will get out of contract-year boy Theodore.
It's a good thing Colorado didn't try to sign him during the season, his play would have tanked.
Minnesota plays great defense under Lemaire and they have two capable goaltenders.
Colorado is riding a 5-0-1 record into the playoffs, and with the addition of Forsberg, who has 12 points in his last five games, 11 points in his last four, along with Sakic, Stastny, Smyth, Hejduk, Brunette, etc., Minnesota is gonna have their hands full.
I don't know that Gaborik & company have what it takes to battle through the playoffs, despite the addition of their tough guys.
It's a toss up for me with a slight edge to Colorado because of the Forsberg factor.
