From Nova News Now,
By the time you read this, the Stanley Cup playoffs will be well-underway. There might even be one or two teams already eliminated.
However, don’t ask me to predict who they might be. This year’s cup chase is the most wide-open in years.
I’m a traditionalist in many ways but, in terms of the NHL, I like that there are easily five or six teams that could easily go all the way - and, with a little luck, maybe even more than that.
It’s a change - a breath of fresh air, even - from some seasons in the past, when the cup winner could almost have been mailed the trophy.
There was a run of years back 10 years or more when the Stanley Cup final was decided in four straight games for probably three years in a row. I, for one, would far sooner see a little more excitement; this year, we just might get it.
