hello frhe renom an old timer-so they tell me-but few can build destination resorts-the sharks took out the huge detroit machine-that is major fact-chicago has beaten the canucks twice in playoffs-this is due to fresh blood[young aggressive athletes]the sedin twins have been there too long-tht the teame remuneration packages create overpaid high living athletes-many ""top guns""are in it for themselves-not en the team-also-the pace is extraordinary-ten times faster than in my time/jdenishuggard,west vancouver,bc,canada

I'm predicting that this year belongs to SJ Sharks! They will surrounds the prey and attack from all angles. Go Sharks!!!

Chicago. I think they are a better team. PLUS--I'm mad at the Sharks--Im a Colorado Avalanchian!

Sharks all the way this year, Sharks are more skilled than the blackhawks

The Sharks are way more physical than Chicago and will wear them down.

Go Sharks!!! I am afraid that everyone will only be chum in the Tank.

Hawks in 6. The team is way too deep and young.

This will be a very deep BLOOD BATH.. Both teams are strong and they know how to score.. But, The only thing that makes my vote is youth and depth.. My prediction will be the Blackhawks in 6 games.. It is going to be a strong game and in some cases a very long night..( 3 games in ot) If the Hawks should win this series would it be very nice to see the Habs and the Hawks in the stanley cup.. ( Original 6 playoff) It would be nice..wouldn't it............

The hawks have a 260 pound wrecking ball that can score in bunches . there will be a lot of beached sharks when the series is over. hawks in 6 maybe 7. On the road the hawks look like a cup winner. At home the fans should stay in their living rooms. look for the hawks to return to chicago with a couple of wins in the shark tank.

This one's tough to call. The 'Hawks have great special teams (power play) and they have youth and depth, but the Sharks have a fearsome fin machine, and with the additions they made in the off season to the roster, they have the potential to go all the way - as long as they remain consistent. Tthey can't lose their focus, they have to stay tight. If they can do that, they can take it - but I think it will go tooth-and-nail, white-knuckles, edge-of-your-seat, all the way to seven. You've got an experienced championship team with skill and a hungry, aggressive team with stellar performers...a real toss-up, but I'm going with San Jose in seven.

it's already a blood bath, the sharks are eating each other HAH
