Ottawa vs AnaheimWill it be the “Power Play Play-offs” or the ‘Finale?’ We brace ourselves for another rendition of the National Penalty-Calling League. Either way Ottawa is going to prevail. I don’t mind the Ducks as a team and they are certainly capable of winning, but the Sens are the deep TEAM; Anaheim an assembly of specialized parts. Ottawa has 4 lines that can hurt you, and are a short handed threat, and have smart quick d. The Ducks don’t have strength evenly distributed through their line up and face it, Giguere is sometimes good at shutting down, sometimes not.
I do think highly of Anaheim. Most pundits think so, too. And most predict a 6 or 7 gamer. But I’m picking Ottawa in 5 games. They got somethin’ good goin’ on.
