So I got through the Conference Finals with both of my picks being correct. This makes up for my "less than stellar" performance in the second round. I am proud to say that no matter what happens, I will have picked more winners than losers in the 2008 NHL Playoffs.
Rather than just arbitrarily picking a champion, I have decided to compare the Eastern and Western Conference Champions to determine "who will really win" ... ultimately in my opinion anyway. These criteria will be: Leadership, Offense, Defense, and Goaltending.
Criteria 1: Leadership

It's time for Sidney Crosby to shine ... He is the real deal. I don't care how experienced Nicolas Lindstrom is ... This is Sid's time (not to mention his young gun supporting cast). Advantage - Pittsburgh.
Criteria 2: Offense

Criteria 3: Defense

Criteria 4: Goaltending

Tie-Breaker: Fate

Let me know what you think!
(For the record, my playoff picks record is 9-5)
