    I do agree that sports is such an organic and fluid thing that the most microscopic of circumstances can change the course of a shift, game, series or season.
    Impossible to 100% predict or control it.
    Another factor is, regardless of phenomenal physical conditioning, these teams/players have to be physically and mentally exhausted after 82 regular season games and 1-2 rounds of playoff series. Something as simple as morale could be the difference between wins/loses at this point in the season. FLA seems to be in a better place, morale-wise than Toronto. You don't see anyone out of gas or pouting or giving up. And a ruthless fan base can play a pretty big part in team morale too.
    There's a few teams in the league where the fans act like they own the team and will boo their own team when they're down, just as quick as cheering when they do well.
    I wouldn't want to play my heart out for a town like that.

    I know it wouldn't be good for revenue, or people who like to watch as much hockey as possible, but I think it would be better to have less regular season games and maybe shorten it to 5 game series.
    Less injuries and more gas in the tank for playoff season.

    Yeah Kings messed up with Jones as well, not to mention the disrespect with Quick in last months of 10yr deal. Hope JQ collects a 3rd cup as a Knight, regardless if he gets playoff time in. Nerd looking rob 'fake' blake is over-rated like his retired number and his hip checks. Guy had a decent blast from the blue line ... big fking deal.

    Two teams that never won the cup in the final! Should be good!

    I think I'll cheer for the team in a non traditional hockey market that hasn't won a Cup before.

    Vegas will try and get under their skin and Florida will laugh in their faces. Florida in 5.

    Cats strung out that B's ball, stomped on the Leaf pile and made it through a hurricane ! While it true, cats seem to have 9 lives ..the coaching and pedigree in the Vegas locker room should be able to overcome Florida. Brilliant move to stretch out the series once up 3 nil, as momentum is lost for Florida and the whole rest thing is over-rated. I'm sure Boston would agree as by the time the playoffs started their momentum was kaput.

    Ha, that's funny because there was plenty of 'experts' that said the primadonna oilers would take the cup this year.

    My money is on Vegas as the hockey gods have a way of not rewarding dirty players like mt, plus Vegas came so close 2017 and making playoffs 5/6 yrs not bad.

    Cool. Hope you win money. I personally don’t really care but I feel Florida is playing some great hockey right now.
    You’re right. 5/6 years is good. They did get a ready built team in a lot of ways. Sure, they have made good moves along the way. But, it’s like Seattle. They were handed a lot of talent and I’m not a fan of how the NHL builds the expansion teams.
    My prediction is Florida in 7.

    For the record, I never thought the Oilers would take the cup. They aren’t complete. The D needs work and the goaltending is not championship caliber.
