    Hey, this is for all you hockey fans out there! Who are you cheering for to win the Stanley Cup and the divisions in the next NHL season?

    I'm hoping Oilers for Western Conference Champions. Man, it was such a heartbreaker seeing Oilers lose the Stanley Cup Finals last year to Carolina, and they may be a very different team from last season, but they got some awesome rookies in their lineup (Rob Schremp, Ladislav Smid), and I can't wait to see Joffrey Lupul in action with the copper and blue. It really does blow that Laraque is gone now, though. Makes me lose all respect for Kevin Lowe, cause even in the new NHL, some kind of Enforcer is needed (and Laraque was amazing to the community, and a real nice guy).

    Now take a guess at what team I want to win the Eastern Conference. Toronto Maple Leafs, of course. Been a fan of them all my life, and they've got such a killer lineup now, I think they'll make it. Don't forget how often they make the Playoffs, and how close they were last season.

    And the Leafs to win it all. Going to be a heartbreaker here in Edmonton if they lose the Stanley Cup Finals twice in a row, but I like the Leafs much more, so go Leafs!

    And Sens, Habs, Flyers, and Flames can BURN!
     
    You won't find many Hockey fans here... I'm one of the few, I usually chat on different message boards for sports talk.

    Anyway, I've always been a Blueshirts fan so of course I wanna see the Rangers go all the way. This year they've stocked up on lot of needed grit talent like Aaron Ward & Matt Cullen from the Cup champs Carolina Hurricanes and of course the big fish they managed to get a hold of is Brendan Shanahan from the Red Wings, he chalked up an 81 point season last year I think. I also can't wait to see Marc Staal make the team although I don't think he will yet, not this season anyway.

    As for my West team I've always liked the Oilers since I always figured Rangers are Oilers East and the Oilers are the Rangers West since the two clubs seem to be real tight over the years, I mean the Oilers trained at the Rangers practice facility while getting ready for the Cup Finals to get use to the East atmosphere and timezone. But other then them I don't mind the Blackhawks.

    I'll agree with you on the Flyers since I hate their guts and the Islanders & Devils as well but I can also agree to not liking the Senators since I live around the Ottawa area and there are tons of their fans who are blah blah we'll win the cup this season yet they choke in the playoffs every year and yea...it gets annoying.

    Here is a good site for those who are lost on the free agents being signed...
