Vasi gets injured and it's bye bye Cup. It's going to be a tough series. I think Vegas is "safer" off, as they have the depth (especially in the net). Isles are a bit shaky/uneven to win it. Same with Dallas.
It's probably Vegas vs. Tampa in the final. If Vasi is healthy, it will be a 7 game deal. Otherwise Vegas.
Edit: Didn't see the date of the posts.
Odd take considering Tampa is winning against the team that beat Vegas with ease.
On paper Tampa has significantly better high end forwards than Vegas, slightly better depth up front, a better defense top to bottom, and a great goaltender. I really don't see much of a reason to think Vegas would do any better than Dallas, especially because there record was inflated by playing in the worst (by far) division in hockey this year, getting essentially a free round in Chicago, and the West being weak in general this year.
Boston was better than any team Vegas faced in the playoffs and Tampa breezed past them in 5, without a star forward who would instantly be Vegas's best player should he switch teams. He's 4th, arguably 5th on Tampa.
There is no sane argument that Vegas would beat Tampa outside of the usual 10-20% chance of a hot goalie that can happen in any NHL series.
