I dunno, Iggy touched the western trophy and we were robbed of winning the cup at home.

			Florida in 6. 
Unless Bob comes back down to earth. If he stays in form, Vegas can't overcome that. 
I feel Vegas is pretty similar to Carolina in what they bring to the table.

I would probably pick 4 but it's hard to say...not sure it means much

			Really interesting final. I think Florida might actually have a bit of a come down due to their break. They seem like they've been running on pure adrenaline for so long.  I also think Vegas has been building to this over the years and it might actually be their time.  Really tough call. I'm gonna say Vegas in 6 but it wouldn't shock me at all to go the other way.

			6 of the last 8 Stanley Cup finalists have come from income tax free states including 2 this year. 
 
Definitely an advantage in attracting talent while meeting the cap.

I've disliked him ever since he whined about Tkachuk "kicking" Scheifele.  He made himself look like a complete tool.
 
There's two reasons why I don't want the Panthers winning.  Tkachuk and Maurice.  And maybe Gudas too I guess so three.

			Panthers in 5. 
 
I think Vegas is running out of steam.  They had a blow out win tonight, but had trouble closing out Dallas.  The Panthers on the other hand, have lightning in a bottle and time to rest.

Which is not always good when you're on a streak.  We've seen that first hand where the Flames are hot then go on a week long break and it ruins it.
