Who comes out of the East?

As the Capitals and Canadiens are all locked up at one after the first period of play in Washington, I put a new poll onto the site, asking which team you think will come out of the Eastern Conference in this year's Stanley Cup Playoffs. In the site's last poll, which had fans decide whether or not the Rangers would make the playoffs, majority of votes were for "no", meaning you guys guessed right.

As for this poll's question, I will have to go with the Washington Capitals as my choice to come out of the East. When watching them play, they skate very well, their puck movement is superior and they are not a team that I see being eliminated, at least by a Conference foe.

Agree? Disagree? Submit your vote in the poll on the left sidebar. And remember, be sure to stop by the site tomorrow to read my interview with Wayne Gretzky.
