Anything can happen in a game 7 but the Wings look like they're in a ton of trouble. Chicago deserved to win game 6, but at the same time I couldn't believe how bad that officiating was; it looked incredibly one-sided in the Blackhawks favour. I'll say the Hawks win convincingly tomorrow though.
Tonight's a toss-up for me. I'd expect that the Kings would take it, but I could see those SJ forwards stepping up huge tonight. Gut feeling says the Sharks get it done in a nail-biter, probably OT.
In the playoff pool I'm in I really need Detroit to win, and it would be beneficial to me if the Sharks won (I have Datsyuk and Zetterberg, and the other people near the top have Blackhawks and Kings), but part of me wants to see the best Conference Finals the NHL has had in a really long time. You'd have the last 4 Cup champs, and pretty much the consensus top 4 teams in the league. You always see an underdog story make it to the Conference Finals, so it would be a nice change-up to see the best going up against the best.
