Thread: New Jersey Devils Should Walk Away With The Cup!!!

In a time of the annual greats such as Sidney Crosby, Malkin, C.Giroux, Gaborik, S.Stamkos, and the rest of the top players in the East, the talent level in the east compared to the west is unquestionably unfair. This is also a good reason why the All Star Game is a joke, and why they have the All Star Draft. Who would represent the West? A few guys from Vancouver, and a scrap load of other players? The competition from the East is too great, and to skilled for the West this season.

My call is that this series is over in 6 by way of New Jersey. I also wouldn't be surprised if its over before this, but refs will always try to extend the series and force teams to win the last game cleanly.

We know what Jeff Carter and Mike Richards could do when the led Philly into the playoffs all those seasons. The other is we also know what to gauge the talent on by way of the L.A Kings. Most seasons, this dynamic duo would be couped up when trying to lead the Flyers into the playoffs. It wasn't until these two players were re-united in L.A, that the Kings actually became a good team. On that note, the L.A Kings have been gauged as to what they have when matching up against the New Jersey Devils.

Overall, the New Jersey Devils have to face tougher competition, better teams, and better conferences. This should be a no-brainer as to who wins the series. For those who might lay down a little coin on this series, just beware of L.A bets jacking up the odds, so that the New Jersey pay outs should be good, if not great.

I think you're wrong.

Kings have been SMASHING their opponents. Devils will put up a fight but i dont see it being a close contest at all. Kings in 5.

No team that had 7 days rest has EVER won the Stanley Cup. ... The Kings had 8 days rest.... And they are the 8th seed from the west...

The Broncos were the eighth seed in the '97 playoffs and became the first Wild Card seed to win the Super Bowl.

Never say never. Kings in six.

I'm sticking with the Underdogs

NFL isn't the NHL. If only the NFL ran best out of 7 series.. That would be paradise.

I was at a military golf event yesterday in Toronto and I sat down to eat lunch. Some guy asks if he can sit with our little group of 3, I look up saying yes and it is BRIAN BURKE. I was shocked, but he came out to shake the troops hands. He said he is picking the Kings, they remind him of his Ducks team that won the cup

I want the devils- as they used to be the colorado .....But I dont see anyway that they can get passed the kings and that relentless forecheck.

One down.

Actually the Broncos were the second wild card team to win the SB. The 1980 Raiders were the first.

LMFAO stick to football

correct, the East has more finesse players... good thing hockey isn't won with finesse. All your Eastern Conference "greats" are playing golf right now.

From what i watched in the playoffs this year, the Kings have looked pretty dominant. I will be surprised if they don't win.
