According to Doc, I am a shell of a human being for liking this team, but tough, and I will stick by them. I cannot wait for a healthy Lidstrom, Kronwall, and Chelios to come back, and then for D-Mac to reunite the Grind Line and do some damage on the scoreboard and on the ice with their opponents
Detroit has a pattern... great in the regular season, and then they run out of gas in the post-season. What is different about this team, this year to make the outcome any different?
As far as my long-shot pick? Washington.
Short-shot pick? Dallas. ANA is not going to repeat. If Dallas has ANY sort of offense in the playoffs this year, Turco will carry them all the way.

It could be that they play in a crap division full of crap teams....
Tony, what I say the difference is, is the spark that I think McCarty will bring to the team. He has proven himself in playoff games and has worked his way back to an NHL job which says something about him.
Now that the Kings season has devolved completely into the eternally boring argument "to tank or not to tank" it's about time to start looking around the league for the teams you might consider pulling for in the playoffs.
We all know Hatter will be pulling for his sorry no account Flyers to desperately cling to their playoffs spot, CBGB will take his show to the Honda Center and of course their will be the requisite horde of Rangers/Devils fans that will pipe up every time a team from NEW YAWK pots another win....
but I'm curious who The Great Unwashed will be pulling for.
I can't imagine any self respecting King fan rooting for Dallas, Anaheim or Detroit.
Personally I can't imagine rooting for anyone out of the West except Calgary or Vancouver but I still think the Ducks will repeat.
Out East I am completely in the tank for the Caps and the Leafs. They both have an outside shot at making the playoffs (granted the Caps have a much better shot at it) and I would be thrilled if either one of them make it. Barring that miracle I'll be pulling for the Habs and Sens.
So LGK....
WHO YA GOT?
oh you bastard...lumping us in with those ***s from...NEW YAWK...look, just so's ya know Jersey is a seperate state...THE GARDEN STATE...and every self respecting JERSEY fan hates whenever a f'n NEWYAWK team wins.
So please, if you are going to disparage my beloved DEVILS at least have the courtesy to seperate us for the sewer-ridden city known as NEWYAWK...and as I fade into a drunken coma...FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUCCCCCCKKKKKK THE RRRRRRAAAAANNNNGGGEEEERRRS!!!!!!!!

I heard that New Jersey smells like garbage and that it should be called the garbage state instead of the garden state.
Not that I know, just what I heard.
What say you?

Ill be pulling for Calgary and Minnesota myself but predict the Ducks to repeat as Cup Champs. I dont see any Eastern Team being able to win the cup this season.

From the East...you gotta love the Caps or the Pens. In fact, Caps vs. Pens in a playoff round would be such a huge draw that I'm thinking the league offices are sacrificing small children to make it happen. Same thing with Rangers vs. Montreal. Man that would be some badass playoff hockey to watch.
