Despite the Eastern Conference's 8-7 victory over the Western Conference in this year's NHL All-Star Game, don't expect the Stanley Cup Finals to go the same way. West teams have been manhandling their Eastern counterparts all season long, thanks to a more competitive division and a fast, physical style that combines the new and old NHL.
