Am I good or what? 10/14 in picking series winners and what did I predict last round? Detroit to win. Check. Detroit in 6. Double Check. Pitt to win. Triple Check. Pitt in 5. QUADRUPLE CHECK! Who will win Lord Stanley? That’s an easy one.

Detroit (1) vs. Pittsburgh (2) - Both teams have skilled forwards. Both teams are speedy. They cancel each other out. Osgood and Fleury are both playing fantastic. One is old, the other young. Who’s better? Who cares. Another cancel. Wings have Yzerman showing his scarred face in the press box. Pens have Lemieux looming in the shadows happy he’s finally getting his debt paid back. Cancel. One city’s auto heavy economy has been suffering for ages (Detroit). The other city’s main economy - manufacturing - left ages ago (Pittsburgh). Cancel.

So what the Hell’s the deciding factor? Easy. Breasts! Detroit has more women, so more jugs! Instant winner!

Seriously….. LOL….. Wings will hoist the Cup because of a key factor. Defence. Wings have much better d-men than any opponent the Pens have faced. Lidstrom, Rafalski….. and Kronwall are excellent. Speed, skill and few dumb penalties. In fact, Detroit as a team takes few penalties. Pitt’s opponents were giving them constant powerplays. These guys can keep up with Pitt’s forwards without getting into penalty trouble. The Pens faced Philly, Rangers and Ottawa. Ummmm, who were each of these team’s top defensive pairings? Trash compared to Detroit’s guys. Detroit in 5
