from Ted Kulfan of the Detroit News,
The Canucks look like they will be a force in the playoffs. I have a suspicion they might be the Oilers of 2006 or the Flames of 2004.
The Canucks have an all-world goalie in Roberto Luongo. (Now, really, did anyone think the Wings were going to rally from that 3-1 deficit after two periods Saturday?) It’s similar to what the Wings enjoy when Dominik Hasek is on his game.
It makes all the difference in the world when you have the confidence of knowing that your goalie will not surrender a lead in the third period.
a little more on the Nucks plus a little Wings talk…

In other words, they’ll lose to Atlanta in seven games. Got it. :D
I wonder if Canadians everywhere would riot at such a notion as the dirty, unwashed and undeserving Southeast winning three Cups in a row.
