My .01

 

I'll watch with intensity, even though i have no dog in the fight, this is great for the NHL.

 

A first time Cup winning franchise and head coach.....

 

Reason for me t want VGK to win....Obvious choice would be the Cassidy factor. I was not a fan the the bruins firing him, even though i understand why they had to, and it worked out great in the end with Monty.

 

Reason for me to want Florida to win...long time franchise having a cinderella season, and as a Flames fan, Chucky.

I wonder if the 'cats will have lost a little of their ju-ju with the long layoff?

They were going great, for their sake I hope the spell isn't broken by the "rest".

I think this will be an entertaining series. 

Thinking I'll be rooting for the Panthers, they have a few of my favorite players and I like the logo/color scheme better than VGK.

And if I'm honest, I'm resentful of the success VGK has had right from the jump. That's dumb I know but, here we are. 

I just hope both teams have fun.

That Vegas team is built to win. They have four equal lines with almost all players that can adapt and exchange roles. A question mark about the special teams where Vegas has just been average. If Hill maintains his level of play, Vegas is a bit ahead IMO. Eichel is on fire, Marchessault is back on the Conn-Smythe discussion, Barbashev was a key addition; I like Carrier, Roy, Karlsson, Smith a lot, completely underrated players. Vegas in 6.

I really hope Florida wins this as said above hating on Vegas over the early success really is dumb but it’s there. 
I also hate on the LTIR play. I know it’s in the rules and others do it but the miraculous physical recovery of these guys right after the salary cap is off is just amazing. 
Math, I think you missed on one of your picks. I give the coaching edge to Florida.

If Vegas wins will they petition the NHL to put Nolan Patrick's name on the Cup??

 

Asking for a friend.

 

:cointoss:

Yeah Broboviski is the difference for me too...I mean Aiden Hill was like 3rd or 4th string if their other goalies were healthy I'd even put Quick in before Hill but we'll see I guess...I think the goalie issue for Vegas is why Edmonton and Dallas had any chance against them to begin with...

I would give offence to Florida and Robustness to Vegas since I don't see anyone on Florida that's really tough even though Vegas doesn't have anyone tough guys either I just think overall Vegas is stronger physically...well Lomberg and Bennett can fight but their size isn't intimidating to Vegas or anyone really haha...Vegas is balanced but Florida is creative and just faster I think plus the Tkachuk factor just makes me give Florida the offensive edge here even over Eichel...I agree this ends in 6...but for Florida instead hahaha this is gonna be a good series🍻

Yeah the Tkachuk/Bennett/Lomberg factor takes it for me too man hahaha...if I could I'd travel with Brady Tkachuk getting drunk and cheering on Tkachuky cheese...man imagine if Calgary could have kept Gaudreau/Tkachuk/Bennett...oh well🍻
