from Dan Wood at Ducks Blog at the OC Register,
It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that whichever team emerges from the Western Conference playoffs will be a heavy favorite in the Stanley Cup Finals. The guess here is that the Ducks, Detroit Red Wings, Dallas Stars and San Jose Sharks are all better than any team from the East, and the Minnesota Wild, Calgary Flames and Colorado Avalanche might be, as well.
The trickiest part, of course, will be navigating through the treacherous first three rounds of the playoffs. And while there is no doubt the West is the stronger, deeper conference, that doesn’t guarantee anything. By the time the Stanley Cup Finals roll around, injuries and other factors could serve to level the competition.
a litte more plus see how the Ducks have dominated teams in the East…
