Anyway this year's Stanley Cup Final is between the Penguins of Pittsburgh and the Red Wings of Detroit. Just like last year.
The Head says: I don't actually think a lot has changed in either team. Marian Hossa switched sides, and Pittsburgh added some veterans in Bill Guerin, Miroslav Satan and Ruslan Fedotenko. Other than that, nothing of note has changed. Detroit is still the Central Division champion, and a top seed in the West. Pittsburgh struggled more, had a change of coach, but had a great run to reach the postseason and now the Finals. En route, I can't help but mention him, Sidney took the showdown against Alexander Ovechkin in his favour.
Overall Detroit has been solid, while Pittsburgh had the more impressive performances.
The Head says Detroit.
The Heart says: like last year, gotta go with my namesake. I still have no love for the Red Wings. They need to do a little more to accomplish that. Show me you're worthy of my sympathies.
The Heart says Pittsburgh.
The Gut says: With little to no change in conditions opposed to last year, I'm inclined to feel the same as last year. Pittsburgh hasn't made such dramatic leaps and bounds, that it has scared the Red Wings. Detroit has not regressed. So, however it pains me to say it, Detroit wins it this year as well... gut feeling.
It will be six games though.
