We didn’t so well with these last season, with not one of us predicting the Chicago Blackhawks would win the Stanley Cup. We’re going to blame the lockout for that and try again for 2013-14. No excuses this time around. Unless there are injuries. Then there are excuses. We may also think up other excuses.

Joe Yerdon: Los Angeles Kings over New York Rangers
The Kings are one of a handful of teams that can hang with Chicago in the West. Their skill, toughness, and goaltending are as good as it gets. The Rangers shake out as a team that seems to have it more put together. If not having Torts in their ears makes the difference, and I think it will, they’ll be right there.
I think LA will take it in 6 games, possibly 7. They have been unbelievable this year. They were even down 3 games to 1 in their first series against San Jose. They also are the first team to win 3 game #7's. They don't seem to quit and have a lot of heart. Quick is a good goalie.
The only thing the Rangers have going for them is Lundqvist and their speed. St. Louis too when he's on his game.
For quite a few years now the West has been better than the East. The LA/Chicago series was like a Stanley Cup final. It was unbelievable and had everything in it. I don't think LA/New York will be as exciting as that.
