NHL 2014/15 Season predictions

Today the NHL season will start and they ll do it in a such explosive way with 4 great game, in the last 1 will see the LA Kings rise the championship banner of the 2013/14 season and of course the SJ Sharks  will travel to LA to revenge the unbelievable playoffs elimination that they got from the kings, they were ahead 3-0 in the series and with an awesome comeback argubly the best in NHL recent history the Kings continued their way to the 2nd title of their history.

EASTERN CONFERENCE
The playoffs battle will be a way more interesting in the eastern conference than the western in terms of quantity of contenders for a playoffs spot. My ranking for playoffs are:
1 Penguins
2 Canadiens
3 Bruins
4 Flyers
5 Lighting
6 Rangers
7 Maple Leafs
8 Islanders

My guess for the conference finals is: Penguins 4-2 over the Canadiens, i think it's the year of finally Fleury will play good hockey even in playoffs and this will change so much the Pengs' version of playoffs.

WESTERN CONFERENCE
 The diffleremce between the 2 conference s that in the western the most interesting battle will be made to detarminate he pos season position in he rankink, because i think the team that will play in the postseason will be the same of last year (maybe the Coyotes or the Canucks at the place of the Stars or the Avs)
1 Blackhawks
2 Blues
3 Kings
4 Sharks
5 Ducks
6 Wild
7 Avs
8 Canucks

I'll go fir the 3rd straight year with a Chicago vs LA conference final and even with another game 7. The winner of this series is hard to guess, but i go with the Kings because of a better goaltending and this will be a breakout point counting the huge talent of both sides offensivly and defensivly.

STANLEY CUP FINALS
LA Kings 4 Pittsburgh Penguins 2
I go with the Kings repeat because despite the greatness of Crosby and Malking LA is a more complete team and a way tougher than Pittsburgh, Fleury vs Quick will be an interesting matchup but even if i predicted the career year of Fleury i think Quick righ now is the best in the world.
