Tarkus' Nonsensical Musings and General Bruhaha

Yeah, I've been watching the Red Wings too, and the only reason they've lost a game in this post-season is because Hasek is washed up.  And sorry to my Eastern Conference brothers, but the West is simply bigger, stronger and better right now.  And the Wings are the best in the biz.

The Pens are playing great team hockey right now, but I think they go into the series against the Wings as the underdog.  Can they win?  Absolutely!  But they're going to have to bring their "A" game almost every shift, let alone every game.

Not sure if the West is so dominant anymore, Crow. The Avs are reloading and pretty weak in net. The Stars are a mystery, but pretty good. The Sharks sank like a stone and could be a paper tiger. The Canucks have one fantastic line and the Ducks are solid, but we saw they flounder without the old guys that keep retiring and then returning. Soon they won't return anymore. The Flames and Wild are pretty solid.

Meanwhile the East has been drafting well and building some solid contenders. Just look in your back yard. Look at all the young studs being groomed in the East! Ovie, Geno, Richards, Crosby, Kovalchuk, Spezza, Bergeron. Not to mention about 6,000 Staals. The list keeps growing and the talent is thickening.

However, then you have the Red Wings. East or West no matter - those guys are just monsters.

Although I will say this - and tark I'm sure agrees - the Oilers will soon be very very scary. Give 'em a goalie, a great defenseman and just a tad longer to mature. They are some faaaaaaaast mammajammas.
