Who will win the Cup?

[Ratatoskr]

So, who will hoist Lord Stanley's mug in 2020?

Since the forum software seems to cap poll choices at 30, I decided to cut the Ottawa Senators. Because, really, what's the point. Sorry, Sens fans. And you thought you had suffered enough...

I would say Boston, but I think Chara’s done this year. So I’ll go with Washington.

 

[bobholly39]

Pittsburgh wins one more

 

[M2Beezy]

St Louis

Washington Tampa Boston and Colorado completing the top5 contenders imo

HM Dallas and the LVGK

If I have to pick, I'll go Tampa. They have the most talent. Maybe one of these years they figure it out.

I don't see St. Louis repeating. They seem like a team who just had a lot go right for them in the 2nd half of the year, I don't think they recapture that. They aren't a team like the Hawks or Pens that have several star players who can put the team on their back. I am of the opinion that a strong defense will not win you the cup, you need game breaking forwards.

I think the cup goes back to the east this year IMO. Too many good teams in the east vs a handful in the west.

Tampa will get their redemption story.

 

[singlesliceofcheese]

I'm picking Tampa every year until their roster falls apart.

Now that Subban is gone this is the Preds year.

 

[HugginThePost]

Vegas....solid throughout the line up.

They will have learned two hard lessons in their two year existence.

Third time is a charm!

I don't think it will be Tampa, St. Louis or Toronto. Boston or Washington is a maybe.

 

[sparxx87]

San Jose Sharks

 

[Keeptdos]

Minnesota. Why? Because what if my vote determines the winner, woah!

 

[The S5]

St. Louis will not even make the playoffs.
I think it will either be Vegas or SJS.

Boy are you in for a surprise.

Boy are you in for a surprise.

Look, nobody had them winning the Cup last year, so, of course I might be wrong.
What I will say is that a lot of things will have to go really well for them to make it in.

 

[Oilers Propagandist]

After the train wreck of a post season from the lightning, I can’t take them seriously. I choose the Knights or bruins. Why not.

Don't mind me, I'm just enjoying finding things to be offended by.

What’s so funny. It’s entirely possible in their division.

 

[themelkman]

Homer vote for the sharks. Think we have the best chance in the west

 

[Midnight Judges]

For those of you who think you have a good idea: How many of you picked St Louis this time last year?

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Tampa is going to cruise to the Cup. Every great team has their humbling experience before they finally win it all.

 

[Taluss]

I'm going with Stars. A team I'm not confident will win the cup and doesnt have the best team out there but has potential to do so... that's usually the cup winner
