I will admit that they are playing great(and will probably beat Detroit 4-0), but the wonderful thing about the playoffs is that almost any team can win(the only team that didn't really have a chance this year was Colorado. They could not score for the life of them, and ran into the San Jose juggernaut in the first round). I don't think that San Jose is a lock to win the Cup but they have a really good chance to make it to the final.
One thing I am sure you will agree with me on is that Detroit took a lot of stupid penalties. That takes the wind out of any team's sails. I'm not saying that it would have made for a different outcome in any of the games, but it certainly would have helped Detroit not to be in the box so much.
I wonder if any of their future opponents will be able to stop Pavelski? He has been amazing so far!
