The Detroit Red Wings, but for them to win the cup would be a miracle. I think Dallas has a great chance to win. They have so many great players. Most teams have only one super star, they have 5 or 6. Plus they are playing the best in the NHL right now.

It's only boring hockey when the team is preventing YOUR team from scoring. I think teams like Boston, Detroit, and Calgary despise "the trap" so much because it prevents them from going anywhere in the playoffs. As for me the trap works fine. Go Devils! ...

It takes a lot longer to get a player to improve in hockey I can see what you mean. Good point. > helps when your team uses the "neutral zone trap" . I know what you mean there. That year New Jersey made it to the finals I didn't watch a whole game I think. Ther was no action. It was very boring. > Boston Bruins, whatever happenned to that team. I think Boston Well, Long story. I am talking with Tony from the Boston area and he seem to think that the owners don't want to give up any money. They are getting rid of all the good players and getting nothing in return. > Heck, Don Cherry will hate for saying that. :) I love Don Cherry. I live in Michigan so I get CBC and watch Canadian Hockey Night all the time. He sure don't hide his fellings. He's great. > I am from Calgary and I love the Flames.

The Flames really came on at the end of the year last year. In another year or so they will have a real good team. They just need some experence. > In the NFL, Green Bay will win the Super Bowl against the Patriots. I think your right but its nice to dream. Go Pats!!!

They lost to New Orleans adn Cinci, adn another weak team I -> can't remembr, and if Morte Anderson would not have missed that Field -> Goal this playoff team of the future would not hav been noticed. Good -> Luck but I think they'll need it, Denver should have beat them! I guess you are wrong this time. Jacksonville Jags beat the Broncos last week and will now face New England Patriots this Sunday. You are right though, that they might be one of the expansion team ever in the NFL. Imagine both the Jags and the Panthers are going to their Divisional Final in their second year in the NFL. I hope they both go to New Orleans in the Super Bowl, but they have to beat Green Bay (Carolina) and New England (Jags) first.

After all they are in only their 2nd year, if they make the Super owl, more power to 'em, I still think Denveer is also a better team, that lost one game to them! Look at the margin of victory in Jaxsonville's Wins also, they play close games and are not as dominent as MOST Super Bowl contenders. Just my opinion too!

NC> No one here would mind Lou Holtz coming and shaping up our NC> sorry team. :) If he came _AND_ shaped up our sorry team, I would agree with you. The problem I have here is he can't do both in my opinion. The only part of your equation he can fulfill is taking the job. He can't shape up the team. At least, that's what I and most people in New Orleans think. Therefore, I beg to differ with you. I think my sentiments, as expressed above, are what most people in New Orleans feel.
