Brad Richards, Tampa Bay, center. He'll get plenty of ice time, put up big points and get every chance to be great. Most teams will focus on Vincent Lecavalier, so he'll have more room to work. Colorado has every weapon imaginable. Milan Hejduk is arguably the most pure scorer in the league right now.
New Jersey has everything, too.
They know how to win, and they still have a chance to get better by signing Jason Arnott and Scott Niedermayer. Both teams are well-coached and geared to get the finals. I'll take New Jersey in a repeat, but a lot of things can happen between now and then. West - St. Louis, Detroit, Phoenix, L.A., Dallas, Edmonton, Colorado, San Jose. It should be enough, but it won't be easy.
