from Steve Simmons of the Toronton Sun,
• Love to know what the head of the NHL Players’ Association thinks about the head-shot controversy, but alas, there is no head of the NHLPA and thus no one to speak on behalf of the players for or against.
• Can’t envision a Stanley Cup final that doesn’t have Pittsburgh or Washington in it. The West can offer up a deeper field with Chicago, Vancouver, San Jose and Los Angeles all capable of doing some playoff business.
• For as much as Dion Phaneuf has contributed to the Leafs, he has yet to bring much offence. As of Saturday night, he had no goals, just two assists with the Leafs and the Toronto power play has been mostly dismal since he was traded for.

Unfortunately the Leafs have Kessel and little more than an AHL team up front. That’s not going to cut it against NHL PK’s! Not surprising, the T.O. media is expecting Dion to be superman in blue and white. Actually feel sorry for him, I guess that was Sutter’s punishment in trading him out of Calgary!

I’d say there’s somewhere around a 50% chance of a team other than Washington and Pittsburgh making it through the East. Simmons must have a poor imagination.

The author forgot about New Jersey in the East. The trio of Washington, Pittsburgh, and New jersey looks like the strongest contenders to a Stanley Cup final. If you’re including a tem like Los Angeles in the West (which I happen to like a lot, but doubt as Cup winners), you could easily add Buffalo or even Philadelphia in the East. I think Detroit has a better chance of “doing some playoff business”.
