Penguins in 6! The wings are pretty banged up and a short layoff won\'t help them any!
I can\'t wait to see Hossa\'s face when he loses two years in a row, but getting so close :woohoo:
The thread for the finals. Naturally, I\'d like to see a repeat of last year, but this will be A LOT more hard fought. Impossible to say which team has a clear advantage. Let the games begin!
GO WINGS!

I\'ve been thinking about how to call this for several days now. Tough call with two excellent teams. I see some similarities between the Pens and my Oilers of old where they got beat by the Isles the year before they won their first Stanley Cup.
Still, at the beginning of the playoffs I called Detroit as the Cup winners. I think their depth will win the day once again, but it will be a hard fought battle.
DET in 6

pens have the advantage. lidstrom datsyuk both not 100%, while crosby malkin are playing like 200%. i\'m gonna say penguins sweep the wings...LOL
If we\'re doing brave calls, I\'m stealing this one from the earlier series threads: Wings in 3
Should be one hell of a series. Any word on when it starts? Is it on Saturday already?
GO WINGS!
should be saturday
Correctly predicted this at the start of the playoffs. And I\'ll stick with my pick...Detroit in 6.
Yes SATURDAY is when Game 1 will begin..
I am on the fence here, I am not sure who I want to win this damn thing..
Zorro says "vote for Dobber"
Angus is my best friend at dobberhockey..
This has the potential to go seven boys, and that\'s what I\'m calling. B)
The winner will be the team with the home ice advantage...
Wings in seven.

Obv just giving you a hard time bro, not everyone is lucky enough to watch the Finals on a Canadian network.
Anyways,
Cheering for the Pens, but I\'m agreeing with playmaker. Wings in 6.
Cheers.
Wings winning in 7 with the pressure on. Showing the heart of a champion.
yawn...
worst possibly stanley cup final from a marketing perspective. Been there done that. i don\'t really have much of an interest in the finals this year (after being gung ho for them last season).
