I'm a little more than a casual fan of hockey being from the UK where we don't get to see the NHL that much but I'm a fan of the Ducks all the same so I'm glad they made it through.
At least I can see the Ducks play at least 4 games as we are getting the finals over here. Usually it's just random games and I have to resort to just reading up the results and catching highlights!
Also I have a question regarding jerseys? Are the updated every season? I have the current Anaheim jerseys Home and Road, but was wondering whether teams usually change designs or just how there made?

I don't want to see the Cup won by cities like ing Carolina, Tampa, Anahiem, etc. The Cup belongs in either of the Orignal 6 cities or anywhere in Canada. Amen.

Quack..Quack..Quack..Quack.. Should be an awesome final. Even though I think Ottawa definitely deserves it more, I'd much rather Anaheim.

I says Ducks in 5.
Good luck Ottawa.

Wings couldn't put a 60 minute effort together in the last two games and it cost them, simple as that. Game 5 they quit early. Game 6 they showed up two periods late. As UYI said, this team exceeded expectations, but it's still a tough loss to swallow.
Go Sens.

since when do the ducks have fans? I've been a fan, but joined a month ago. I really don't care what people say on some message board I know who my team is and I stay loyal to them.

but how can you honestly say that they'll beat ottawa in 5? in my opinion, they barely made it through the last two rounds. whereas ottawa beat out both buffalo and new jersey with no problem. c'mon.

Devils weren't even that much of a threat. Buffalo they just didn't want it. I just think Ducks will want it more and play good like they have and hoping that Giguere can make some big saves.

He didn't look good against Ottawa, or Tampa Bay. He was letting in goals that he doesn't usually let in. And I'd rather Niedermeyer leading my team into the Stanley Cup Finals over 'Krusty' any day.

Ducks coasted through the playoffs. Wild, no offense...but they're the Wild. Canucks, who weren't swept only because of Roberto Luongo. Wings, their only actual competition, and they can't ING FINISH A GAME. Sens in 6.

The game was bad. Wings didnt play well and it cost them. Go Sens. Pronger sucks and doesnt deserve a cup at all. Sens need to send Gap Tooth, Just For Men (Niedermayer (Scott I think) and everyone else home. Giggy played great which is good to Anaheim but I think Emery is better or can be better
I Say Sens in 7. Detroit Curse guys.

I must be the only one, but I say Ottawa sweeps in 4. Giguerre is the only reason Anaheim is where they are at, and for my money, Emery has been playing a lot better, not to mention Ottawa's offense is going to be really hard to stop. Anaheim only has two lines at best that can score, and we all know that their lines can be stopped, considering Selanne is a **** (at least Zetterberg and Datsyuk are gritty). I'd love to see Heatley and Alfredson make Neidermayer and Pronger look like the chumps that they are. Even if you are an Anaheim fan, you have to be disgraced by Pronger's play and his paranoid attitude.

Brodeur has been the Devils' bread and butter for 13 years. They go as he goes. That team has been built around defense and goaltending since 94. I agree... Brodeur played lousy, and the Devils simply don't have the offensive guns to counter-act that.

imo, if anaheim were smart they'd pick up Rob Schremp from Edmonton and stick him on the Getzlaf/Perry line.

I'd be shocked if either team gets a sweep
