Finally something important going on in the sports world. Yeah, I know me and Woody might be the only 'Rats watching.
It will have a different look this year. The Los Angeles Kings, winners of 2 of the last 3 Stanley Cups failed to qualify for the playoffs, as did the 2011 champion Boston Bruins. The New York Rangers had the best regular season record, and will be slightly favored over Montreal and Tampa Bay in the East. The West is wide open. The Blackhawks are getting Patrick Kane back from an injury that sidelined him for the last 21 games of the regular season. Kane was leading the NHL in scoring when the injury occurred.
