The most important thing about this decision is that you don't pick Anaheim because frick Getzlaf and Perry and that whole stupid, Disney movie franchise.

Also, if you pick Colorado then frick your newly adopted granola munching fanbase and that fatass Patrick Roy and his overly flashy glove hand.

What I really mean to say is, pick the Stars.

You get a pass if picking the Blues cause I'd like to see Morrow, Ott and that ol' tub Hitchcock win the Cup.

However, it occurred to me that since both teams are in the playoffs there's a chance one could end up winning it all. What if I pick Colorado for instance, and they go on to win the cup? That would suck, as it would directly violate one of the biggest things that I am vehemently against. Quite the conundrum.


Put your mind at ease by picking the Stars and knowing that they will not win the Cup this year and are playing with house money being in the playoffs ahead of rebuilding schedule. Plus, if they do it will be the most intense and rewarding professional sports playoff ride of your life.

On the hockey side, the team is very young(top line ages are 24/22/19) and inexperienced in the playoffs, but they're one of the best all-around skating teams in the league and are fun to watch.

They've got undersized, 2nd and 3rd line defenseman playing 30 mins a game and trying to battle Getzlaf and Perry this series, and they'll be outmatched on the blue line against anyone in the playoffs.

The team is the definition of underdogs this year but they've got top offensive talent and a goalie who can win a series himself when he's on point.
