text: ny rangers, stars, philly, anaheim, carolina.  i don't think any of those teams have a chance to get to the finals.  3 of those teams are behind two games in their series.  dallas really is a disappointment to the west.  the stars were a pick to win the cup but they won't due to their lack of hunger.  philly just is too physical.  carolina is too inexperienced.  they say detroit is too old but i say they aren't.  they have the most experience out of the playoff contenders and should have the most hunger for the cup.  i think they will get past edmonton and colorado.  they will face the flames and it will be a dog fight that will produce the winner of the cup.  the eastern teams are good but not good enough outside of new jersey.  i see a matchup of new jersey and detroit in the finals.  seven games with detroit as the winner.
