I think the '94 team had a better chance. Games were much closer.
Rangers - 21 goals
Canucks - 19 goals
Bruins - 23 goals
Canucks - 8 goals
The Canucks got their a$$ handed to them in '11. - Marwood
In ‘94 we loved the team. They were scrappy, and came together to defy the odds against a team that was built to win the cup. In ‘11 I can remember thinking mid way through the season “this is the year”!
The one against Kruger might be considered a hard hit if you are a pacifist. The rest were . - Marwood
He ranked 77th in hits out of like 900 players - played 66 games and averaged the lowest TOI amongst all regular Van Dmen that year (basically a 6D). Had more hits than Chara for reference. He also rag-dolled and kicked the piss out of Jamie Benn - but yeah the guy was a pu$$y, and your rebuttal was keep wood piling bud.

Hardly, they were decimated by injuries and they were up 3 games to 2, but to each their own. The 2011 team was much more talented, when not injured, than the 1994 team.
Ya he and svech are a toss up for 2... he’s turning into a beast but i have no idea what the upper limit of either player is though, too close to call! Dahlin is going to be the best dman in the league, already in my top 10. - neem55

I don’t think the team lacked toughness at all. I think they were coached into passiveness during the playoffs. The 2011 team was the best Canuck team ever and the stats show it. They dominated the regular season. They were talented, dirty, and incredibly hard to play against. Playoffs... not so much.
That’s why Tom did colour and isn’t an analyst. - bloatedmosquito
Tom was well loved and respected. He turned 80 today. Gillis fired him shortly after he went on his rant on one broadcast for telling the truth about ht team.

I know he’s well loved but come on. Bingo, bango, bongo... he was perfect for radio... in 1977.

It is in style now .
Tik Tok is the new dance and music.
Our Daughter in Saudi Arabia (Filipina) now uses this new app called Smule and does Karaoke nightly for us on Facebook . It sounds like someone is getting their balls crushed in a vice. She calls us every night on Messenger (sweet girl) and we have to lie through our teeth saying it sounds lovely as our ears bleed.
They should ban any app that allows people with no talent try to preform like a professional .

Comets President Rob Esche says money from "Puck the Virus" T-shirts will pay lost wages for 166 part-time workers from games scheduled at the ABC during hiatus.
Earlier this week, he told me about 3K shirts had been sold.

There it is. Bruins had no business being on the same surface as that 2011 club...but what happened... happened. Can analyze it all day all night lol plus the Bettman/Campbell factor after the Rome hit...Luongo choke...on and on. Bottom line is they had the skill and everything else to get it done. AV shutting down Lappy and Torres in the final in favour of the dead PP was one of the killers like you said. They were crashing and banging in the CHI-NSH-SJ series but were almost invisible in the finals after the Rome hit.

They got out coached. The turn the other cheek and let the refs decide was the worst thing AV could have said.
And yes I was cheering for them. - K-man25
Also a factor. Not that K-Man and I agree on lots but he's bang-on here.
Oh and by the way I was cheering for the Flames in '04 too
