For those not familiar, this is Hockey. The National Hockey League.
Final will be Anaheim Ducks VS Buffalo Sabres
Conn Smythe Trophy - Chris Pronger
Most points by a player in the first round - Sidney Crosby
First team to get knocked out - I really hope Toronto if they make it!
What do you think?

I'd love to see Danny Heatley win. That kid has been through hell and back and to see him have a shot at the cup would warm my heart. I know the families involved in his own personal trauma of the past and truly witnessed the pain of all involved. To see him thrive again and seem to enjoy the game he loves makes me so happy. He's a good guy and I'd love to see him kick butt this year... he's one of the biggest reasons I'd love to see Ottawa take some major footing in the Cup finals!!!!

I am an oiler fan but since they sucked this year I am forced to cheer for Calgary because i'm from Red Deer Alberta Canada which is exactly in the middle of Edmonton and Calgary. My Prediction is Calgary Flames and Buffalo
in the final. Man this hurtsIginla conn smythe.

Ok... here we go......
I hate to admitit but I think you're right on for the final. Buffalo has the stamina, although I'll tell you I wouldn't be surprised by Buffalo, Pittsburgh (although I think we may be next year's contender) and NJ as usual. Definitely Ducks, some are thinking Calgary but I think Anaheim has more definition and depth to carry it through.
Smythe - it's really debateable indeed... I'm not thinking Pronger though. I think it's going to end up being a toss up between my favorite, Devils goaltender Brodeur or a surprise player from the final games.
Most Points in the First Round I agree, Crosby. He's held the title of most points period of late so why not first round points.
Knocked out... I doubt Toronto has the depth to even pull into the running at this point but if they do make it they'll lose face quickly and be knocked out. I think it might be Ottawa. Even though they've already clinched their position I don't think they have the ability to maintain it against some of the Eastern Conference teams like NJ, Pitt, etc.
