It looks like Dallas is making a charge this year. They might have a question mark in net but Turco is looking quite solid right now.
Detroit is a perennial contender too, don't count them out, especially when Stevie Y comes back. I hope they don't win it so Joseph can go somewhere else and finish his career cupless. Serves him right for turning his back on us.
St. Louis is looking good also but, as always, they don't really have a goalie. I don't envision Braithwate leading them to a cup but, then again, who would've thought Bill Ranford could lead the Oilers to the promised land in 1990?
Boston is on the way up too.
If the playoffs were to start right now, though, I would put my money on Philly. They have all the unknowns in the equation right now.
Of course, it is still early and things will change. Colorado is due to wake up about now and, let's face it, Minnesota and Tampa are not going to win their respective divisions. They have to learn to walk before they can run. Just like the Islanders last year.
Anyway,
GO SHARKS and uh, GO OILERS
