Lifelong Cup final
I strongly believe that one of these two teams will find themselves playing for the Cup in June. Just you wait and see.
Moreover I believe one of them will play at least four games in the Stanley Cup Finals
Quit trying to ruin the game with your advanced statistics.

ehh...that depends on whether some of the goals were disallowed or not.

ALSO, what if there's a bunch of own-goals? Then the team that scored the most goals would lose.
These "predictions" are falling apart by the minute. Can't wait for the wall of shame, I've already got it keyed up in another tab.
This is about where I am, too.

The Sweet Meteor of Death is going to win both the Presidential Election and the Stanley Cup this year.

Fuck the Columbus Blue Jackets Twitter
You know we aren't signing Stamkos. We'll sign another project, another journeyman, 2 more grinders and ice 90% the same team as last year, make the playoffs because Price, but be eliminated in round 1 or 2 because Price alone doesn't make you a contender, and Therrien will still be coach heading into 2017-2018. Molson doesn't care about winning a Cup, just about getting a round or 2 of dat playoff revenue.
Quote this in May 2017 for truth.

No, he's actually shaped up lately and become more of a contributing member of society.
I think, honestly, that Therrien will lose his job around late november and we'll ride that "new coach boost" for a while. At this point, it's pretty much the only way we'll win a cup.

If I pulled that off, would you die?
Its time for Blues to end their cup drought. 3 Finals losses is just brutal.

It's not just three losses, it's three losses in a row within the first three years of existence while getting your ass handed to you on a silver platter by the likes of the Habs and Bruins while getting swept all the same.

Why would he switch back to Fleury now?
Honestly I don't think either goalie would be a bad choice. Fleury is potentially HOF bound and has a Cup under his belt. He played great this season until his injury. If Pens would bring Fleury back this would probably be the game to do it.
Murray has been amazing but is still pretty much unproven. I'm thinking they'll stick with Murray and that's the best choice, but you never know.

I hate to say it but I am for this series.
Yeah, him and Antti Niemi.
playin the game man. he didn't keep it a mystery after a loss to avoid creating a distraction/controversy. but it's a new series so it's always good to keep the opponent guessing just a little.

Yes.
He said days ago it's going to be Murray. Nothing else would make sense, and I don't get how some Pens fans think Fleury is even a choice for game one. Just inexplicable.

The last time Pittsburgh fired their coach mid-season, they won the Cup. They got past the President's Trophy winners in 6 games with a rookie goalie and zero goals from Crosby. It looks like they finally have the depth to complement their superstars. Even if Murray falters, MAF is waiting in the wings (whose 2.29 GAA and .921 SV% in the regular season are career bests).
Of the final four teams, Tampa Bay probably got the easiest route to the Conference Finals. They don't have Stamkos or Stralman but haven't missed a beat without them. With last year's Finals appearance to draw upon, they're a young team that's battle-tested.
I'm going with Pittsburgh in 7.
