BIG dmen as well for EDM. If they can get puck out of dzone quickly Fla forecheck won't be able to roll them like w/ NYR

I beg to differ. The Panthers will forecheck them heavily. They're health this year and have already been to the finals. The East is much stronger and plays a heavier game. It takes a lot to get out of the Atlantic, with 4 contenders and 3 up and coming teams in that division. The Metro is the Rangers and Hurricanes. The other 6 are interchangeable. What great powerhouse resided out west this year? It was wide open and the Oilers just walked through a broken front door. The Oilers overall defense is average at best and their goaltending is about a 5 out of 10. The Panthers roll 4 good forward lines and their defense is solid. The goaltending differential is night and day. Panthers in 5.
