The 'future' of the Blackhawks is trying to catch the Red Wings.    There are few guarantees in life or sports, but it is safe to assume that Detroit is going to keep finding obscure talent and developing it.   An uphill slog at best for Chicago.

Well played, Blackhawks.   No predictions about the finals.   I think Detroit wins, but I am not confident enough to wager large sums.

I am hoping the experience from last year is what puts the Pens on top this time.  While they don't have as many scoring options as the Wings (No one does.), the Penguins can threaten with all 4 lines and I would give the slight edge to Fleury over Osgood.  Ultimately I think it comes down to who makes the fewest neutral zone mistakes, as both teams can absolutely kill you by capitalizing on those mistakes.


Pens in 7.  (On an OT winner from Crosby.)  ;)

Agree with all the above....fantastic season for the Hawks.  I'll be pulling for Detroit, should be a great rematch.

I'll be at game 4 in Pittsburgh but I'll be cheering on the Penguins big time!
