And Pittsburgh is funny because they don't play defense and their goaltending is questionable. This was shown last year in the playoffs. If they can't outscore you they can't beat you.
last year was last year
hawks lost in the 1st round...sure blame it on Hossa

In a short season like this, front running teams can't be gotten past. Long seasons are built for teams to underperform yet still have enough time to develop a groove and get enough chemistry going for the playoffs. In a short season, that time luxury to fix things doesn't exist. You have to pay more attention to teams out of the gate. Early grooves/chemistry is what counts in a short season.

I'm a Penguins fan BUT I somewhat have to agree. I couldn't figure out WHY we were the fav for the Cup preseason. the D is shakey, Goaltending inconsistant AND we don't have the SIZE at forward which really shows esp on power plays.
as fo Ducks vs Blackhawks, I think it would be a tight match coming down to WHO has the "hot goalie". Viktor Fasth could definately be this year Johnathon Quick

Chicago is basically a poor man's Penguins without all the talent.
