three reasons: and any and all professional hockey analysis will agree with me. I garentee it.

1. brodeur ( at around the age of 32 he is already approching the records set by many of the greatest goalies of all time. he is by far the best goalie in the game right now and he has many years left.)
2. great defence, players like sccot stevens. ( watch with out him the devils wll not got past the first round.)
3. this is the big one because of the TRAP. the devils are the opifany of a trap team, they so good at seting the trap they are like predetor when hunting people. the clog up the neutral zone like there is no tommorow. they clutch and grab and hook and abstruct like mad.

trap + big D + best goalie in the game = 3 cups in the last nine years.

trap is the same method that the wild used to beat colorado, and vacouver last year.

P.S. did you know that brodeur and cloutier are the only NHL goalies to have 3 concecutive 30 win seasons, in the mordern era.

it really does make a difference when you got divsions like the North west and north east. every single team in thous divisions is very good. and are good enough to win other divsions. i am not saying that detroit is a bad team, what i am saying is that the standings are decptive, and teams are not as good as one things just because they are seated in a certain position. look at edmonton. i my opinion edomonton was the best team in the league at the end of the season but they wernt in the playoffs, why cus they dug themselfves a hole at the begining of the year, and were not able to get out because their divsion was so tough.same goes for bufflo, did you know that ever team in the norht east division could have been in the playoffs and every teams except for one could have made the playoffs from the northwest divsion. so looking at the north east divsion, teams there played at least 24 games against teasm that either were in the playoffs or missed the playoffs by one or two points. then you look at the south east divion. tampa was th only team that made th playoffs there, the rest were not even close. that means that tampa played at least 24 games against teams that didnt make the playoffs. that is 24 easy games in for one team, and 24 very hard games for another team. since tampa was first lets say they won all of there games that is 48 pts. and for the otehr teams lets say there were even that is 24 pts, as difference of 24 pts. go look at the standings and youll see how much 24 pts matters. in the vancouver detoirt case i think it would probably would have made around 7-8 pts difference. 7-8 pts would have tied vancouver with detroit with the league lead. now that stat about the 7-8 pts doesnt really matter, but what i am trying to do it to put it in prospective for you.

we havent seen grevious completely. from what i saw inthe cartoon thou he seems very cool. he has a persona we havent seen b4. a supert warrier that goes and kill the enemy captains himself.have you notices how most of the villians in SW dont do things like this papi stays int he shadows as the sith lord until he knows that it is perfectly safe to come out. vader is cool and decided not blood thirsty. same with tarkin, dooku is just and idoit. and maul is all attack no talk. that is what set gevious aside. he has the best of both worlds.

what do you mean no control senerio. how would you have that.

also lets just not argue about it cus there is no way that you could actually see what team is better. players could have bad days, players could be injured. there could be lucky bounces off the boards./ so man intangables so that what ever case you mde it would nto work cus there would be too much of an error.

those are good points but i feel that the real worth of a player is determine on how he playes when there is pressure. look at all of the great players in history, all of them had to be great under pressure. look at marti turco he is an amazing goalie, but he is not that recognzied because he has yet to show that he can play under pressure, same goes for dan cloutier.

it does actually cus you play more games against teams in your division. so if you have a shity division and your good. then all the games you play against teams in your division are easy wins.

here is how it works. a team will play 6 games with teams in their divisions. four with teams in their conference but not in their division. 2 vs teams that a geographically close to them but are not in there conference. and 1 vs teams that are on the other side of the contients so the furthest geographic distance.

eg. for vancouver
6 games vs colorado
4 games vs detroit
2 games vs tornato
1 games vs Tampa bay.

understand.
therefore depending on which division or conference you are in you could have more easy wins then teams in a stronger division. every single team in the northwest division can beat elite teams. cant say the same for the central. the southeast division which tampa is in has the worst teams in the league.

in regards to the comment on salary detroit is lucky that they have good D and good goaltending. NY always had one or 2 great Defencemen and 4-5 horrible ones. in net they never had any tallent. so they could nto support the offence with defence. you can't score when your in your own zone all the time.
