Chicago's goaltending is inferior because they gave away their cup winning goalie to San Jose who ended up second in the west.

Vancouver has a very good chance to win the cup if they don't blow it in the first round. After that it's all gravy for them.
I would really like to see Montreal take the cup, but that's a long (dream?) shot. The Boston - Montreal series will be a good one as their games are always unpredictable.
