Maybe Toronto if they get past the Bruins. Both teams are full of low IQ players and rely on brute force in the form of transition plays and PPs, their recent 1-0 and 2-0 wins be damned (which were more of a result of LA and Boston getting in their own heads than anything), but I think the McOffense is better than Toronto's ensemble of overpaid guys.
Otherwise you can't confidently say they're better than any of those teams. Even with Vancouver who look timid in their own right, they've owned the Oilers all year. Even in the second half when they'd come off their blazing PDO start, they waltzed right into Roger's ####er and took care of business.
Best betting odds at the price? RIP all those dumb gullible fools.
