Before the conference finals, I though the SCF would be the Canes and the Avs. Now, it looks like the Vegas in the West and in the East, I'd like to see the Habs in it too. I think Canes will win it their conference final in 6, but I'd be happy if it was Vegas and the Habs.

My team just has too many dragons that they just are incapable of slaying. President's Trophy curse. Have never beaten either Dallas or Vegas in the post season. Looks like they're going to get the wheels beat off of them, again.

I am rooting for the Avs in the west and Canes in the east. Not looking good. Can't root for Canadian teams ever.

Having entered into a mixed marriage with Mrs. A. being a long-time Pens fan, and my being a Caps fan. With their long and hard-fought rivalry, I am always pretty confident our teams will meet in the post-season. Too bad that in recent years it has been on the golf course!

Long time Buffalo sabres fan. Grew up there. Sad to see the. Knocked out, I just can’t handle a team from a warm weather region wining the cup so. Still rooting for the Canadiens or Avalanche

Pens fan here so I don't have a dog in this fight. I'd like to see Vegas take it all as I've always been a fan of their coach John Tortorella, well except for when he coached the Flyers. Vegas was on a losing streak (7 of last 10 games) when he joined the team. Since he took the helm on March 29, Vegas has gone 19-4-1.
Sometimes, you gotta roll the hard six

Yes, and the question when he started was, "WTF does he know about goaltending" That was their most glaring problem but Carter Hart lost the starting job and then found himself in April. He's on his game at the right time.
At the moment and subject to the whims of the hockey gods, Vegas with a few days rest while the Habs and Canes finish off their series will let them recharge and hit it hard.
I'm a Ducks fan, we lost in 6, and it was clear that Vegas got stronger and better as the series went on. I think they'll essentially steamroll whoever comes from the East.

That Buffalo/Montreal series was a lot of fun. You've got two blue chip defensive prospects from us. Byram and Timmons.

Same here. Good memories of the French Connection.
