Sadly, it wouldn't surprise me one bit if the Wings win the Cup. I hope they don't but, it wouldn't surprise me. If they do make it to the final I will have to root for an East team for the first time in a long time. Lame.
I'd say based on early season predictions that The Rangers and Senators were the most over rated teams this season.

Yeah, the Rangers just completely crumbled underneath all that talent.
EVERY postseason, it's the Wings netminders that worry me. It's been their achilles heel for a long time now...well okay, maybe not 2002 cause Hasek was still Hasek at that point, but those days are long gone, now he's just ordinary. I really don't know why they haven't done anything about it. I mean, it's not that their goalies are BAD, it's just that they not reliable come playoff time. And that means the D has to step up in a big way.
