I think you sorta missed my point. Last year’s SCF’s went to 7 games in a very tight series. I would’ve loved to have seen Edmonton win, but they lost by a hair to Carolina. This year, however, the Ducks just fucking raped Ottawa- the team that bitch slapped the Sabre’s all over the place. It just makes me feel like this unbelievable year, where the cup was pretty much already in the Sabre’s mits, was all just a lie, skewed by the fact that the Eastern conference really IS that weak compared to the Western conference.
Had the Anaheim/Ottawa series gone 7 games, then go Ducks! But not in 5

Maybe you forgot, but Edmonton lost by a hair to Carolina after losing the goalie that got them there. Had Rollie stayed healthy, they would have mopped the floor with Carolina.
The cup being in the Sabres mits was a lie. A team who’s destiny is the cup does not struggle against the Islanders, Rangers, and then lose to Ottawa.
