I will not discount what Seattle just did. It was impressive. However, Oettinger is not Georgiev. I fully expect a Stars series win, but I won't bother saying how many games.

I’m going with the Stars here. Oettinger will be the difference maker

Stars IMO are the front runners in the West. They have experience and goaltending on their side and will be tough to beat. Stars in 6 games.

This series will be an interesting one to say the least. I don’t have any confidence Benn or Seguin can carry the team. Robertson and Oettinger are developing into great players but I don’t know if they can hold off Seattle’s speed. I’m going to go out of limb and say Seattle in 5.

If Seattle wins do they win the Central Division?

You are forgetting Hintz who leads the playoffs in points.

The Krakken for some reason remind me of the 2003 Minnesota Wild. I wouldn't be shocked if they find a way to win this in 7. Although I don't see Oettinger gifting them a Dan Cloutier like melt down to help them along.

Oettinger and the Stars can beat the oilers in round 3. I’m not sure the kraken can.

Go Stars!

Neither Been or Seguin have been carrying this team for a few seasons now. Though they both put in strong years this year that really pushed Dallas out of the wild card picture into the 2 seed. Pavelski, Robertson and Hintz have been the top line for 3 years now and are pretty legit. Robertson has played 210 games and has 104 goals and 130 assists. With his 109 points this year I think he's pretty solidly in the great players camp. And Hintz has 190 points in his last 194 games. (after starting at a slower pace his first couple years)

Can't sleep on Seattle after what they showed against the Avs, but I am feeling pretty good about the Stars.
