NHL.com: Why The Calgary Flames will win the cup...

Balance and goaltending are clear requirements for a team to win the Stanley Cup.
Those qualities, combined with an ideal setup in the underdog role heading into the Stanley Cup Players, are why the Calgary Flames will shock the NHL and win the Stanley Cup.
Offensive stars Johnny Gaudreau, with 61 points (18 goals, 43 assists) and Sean Monahan, with 58 (27 goals, 31 assists), will weave their expected magic, complementing blossoming defenseman Dougie Hamilton, who had a breakout season with an League career high 50 points (13 goals, 37 assists).
Add to that relenting consistency from defenseman Mark Giordano and No. 1 goalie Brian Elliott, veteran right wing Troy Brouwer and rookie left wing Matthew Tkachuk, the Flames have the required grit and size to withstand the grind from April to June.

Pretty sure they're doing this for every team and the article is a bit sloppy (Troy Brouwer lol) but still.
