At the start of the season I always pick the [Toronto Maple] Leafs but that never seems to happen. But then I picked the St. Louis Blues to win it all, and if they didn’t win it, I said Nashville would win it. I guess I was wrong on both accounts. The Kings just look unbeatable. They’ve clicked and really hit their groove at the right time. I’m picking the Los Angeles Kings in five games.
I like David Backes (St. Louis Blues) ... He hits hard and can bury the puck, too. He's an all-around power forward.
We're an evolution, at least where St. Louis Blues hockey is going ... We don't have guys that are going to put up 100 points a year, score 60 goals a year. We need complete players that are hard to play against at both ends, being responsible in the defensive end, trying to create turnovers that turn into offense has been a focal point. It's going to have to continue to be a focal point.More quotes »
