Who could have projected the west being dominated by this lower budget team.

Three years ago, the Oilers started putting together a team of work horses without star power. The strategy seems to have paid off. The Oilers are now one game away from the promised land.

Having one of the toughest roads in the Playoffs, they just keep chipping away. With gutsy play in the net and a defense that is flat out playing the opposition into bad moves, this team may be the best short series team in the NHL.

I'm sold, Edmonton can and should win the trophy.

Anaheim is overmatched. They've played some excellent team hockey, played hard for 60 full minutes every game and got spectacular play from their goalie. The Ducks should not be ashamed of their play. Edmonton is riding an underrated goalie, excellent blue liners and some ridiculous speed at forward.

I still think the East has the best two remaining teams in Buffalo and Carolina, but Edmonton is going to make them work for it.

Anaheim is not overmatched, in fact these teams are very even in talent and play a similar type game. The Oilers have yet to dominate any game in the series and with a few breaks going the other way - the Ducks could be up 3-1 going into tonights' game 5.

A win tonight by the Ducks puts the pressure back on Edmonton to try to close out the series at home.

Don't write the Ducks off yet - this could turn out to be one of the best playoff series in a long time. Games 3 and 4 were about as exciting as hockey gets.

I'll be at the game tonight.

GO DUCKS!!!!!

Edmonton will win it all now.

Mo is on their side, and they will be well rested
