Both teams have already amassed 100 points. Both teams have an identical 8-1-1 record in their last 10 games, coming in strong after the Olympic break and appear to be finishing strong as the regular season winds up.

Legace and Hasek are two top netminders but the thing I love about playoff hockey is you never know about the goalies. When a lesser known goalie gets hot in the playoffs, his team is always tough to beat.
Any thoughts on a goalie that might change the dynamics of the playoffs this year?

I really dont see anyone taking these two teams out in a series. They are both to strong and aggressive offensively. With good defenses.

They both attack the other team when they are on the short side, its crazy seeing them attack the other teams power plays.

I would watch out for the Hurricanes if anyone can contend with these two teams. They are a team with great chemistry and youth. That can get you a long way in the playoffs.

Have you all forgotten Joseph vs. Giguere a few years ago?
This is hockey playoffs we're talking about not basketball, anything can happen!

Yes I agree. The Canes are a very good team. I like them as well. They have made my bankroll very healthy betting them as underdogs.
