OTT in 6 - Pens had trouble handling the physical Isle, I don't see them matching up better against the more physical Sens
NYR in 6 - H. Lundquist. That is all.
CHI in 7 - this one will be the series to watch. Great rivalry, power house Bhawks team versus the resilient Red Wings.
LA in 6 - This choice based purely on the history of SJ crapping around this time of year.

Because he doesn't really make the cut: he was good for a long time, but he was great for a shorter period of time than the usual Hall of Famer (with all caveats about Veteran's Committee inductees, etc).
I invoke the Kirby Puckett argument (with all the usual caveats about neither belonging in the HoF, etc.)

Remember, this is not the NHL Hall of Fame, it's the Hockey Hall of Fame which takes all aspects of your career into consideration.
Truth. Being Swedish certainly didn't hurt Sundin's chances of getting into the HHOF. European's a bit under represented right now.

I don't know how you can put Sundin in without putting Shanahan in.
Its the Hockey HOF, everyone gets in eventually.

and I'm sure there are stories about Gretzky that haven't come out yet.
Watch it man, the can reject you Canadian citizenship for saying that

I really had no beef with LeBron when he was a Caviler, but as Knicks fan I am obligated to hate him based on the uni wears. Oh yeah, and he is kind of a wanker too.

David Moyes is the Spur's top choice? I hope the Glum Glaswegian to stays in Goodison.

R.A. Dickey got photobombed by a flaccid wang during a post game interview.

Lidstrom is easily a top 5 defenceman. I would rank Lidstrom behind Orr, Bourque and Potvin.
With apologies to Jaromir, Lidstrom was the best European hockey player to ever lace 'em up. Period.
I gotta put Hasek as the greatest European born Hockey player.

CBS Loses U.S. Open After Four Decades
Until we get another "golden age" of American tennis, attracting viewers will continue to be a problem.
It's sad to think so many missed out on one of the greatest rivalries the sport has seen because Nadal and Federer weren't American.
