Vote for Chicago!
Chicago was able to add a bit of everything to the team, they have transformed their defense to a top 3 D core in the league. The addition of Rafalski will improve out PP as well as give us some playoff expierience, not to mention, what is it 3 or 4 stanely cups rings? We have an all offence D pairing with Rafalski and Campbell and a shutdown pair of Seabrook and Keith.
The additions of Jordan Staal and Jere Lehtinen gives us more options for the PP, and PK. Staal is an elite PK'er and has great offensive upside aswell. Jere Lehtinen is giving us a veteran that will help the kids get through the playoffs, he has playof expierience and a Stanely Cup Ring.
Our goaltending is fine even though we had to part with Huet. Khabibulin is playing his best hockey in a while and Osgood fills in for the depth we had before with the bulin-huet tandom.
Forgot to mention: We have already finished better than Columbus this regular season and our moves just plain put us over the top.
The team:
Versteeg - Toews - Kane
Lehtinen - Staal - Sharp
Ladd - Bolland - Havlat
Eager - Burish - Dupuis
Keith - Seabrook
Campbell - Rafalski
Lilja - Hjarlmarsson
Khabibulin
Osgood
