Wayne Gretzky knows just how tough it is to win the Stanley Cup, having won the Cup 4 times in his career. He's also had the opportunity to see the sport from multiple perspectives over his career. He's been a player, a coach and now an analyst.
With the Stanley Cup Playoffs heading in to night five, Wayne Gretzky gave his bold predictions on who he believes will win the Stanley Cup.
"
I�think Carolina Hurricanes is a sleeper team, and I think they're destined to get to the Stanley Cup Finals this year. I believe that it will be Carolina triumphing over the Florida Panthers in the Eastern�Conference Final."
St. Louis vs. Calgary is an interesting matchup, because I�think both teams were built for the Stanley Cup Playoffs. I�like St. Louis because I like their metal with O'Reilly and Brayden Schenn, I'm picking them for the�Stanley Cup Finals.
My pick to win the Stanley Cup this year is the Carolina Hurricanes. It's going to be fast, far hitting tremendous hockey with both teams leaving everything out on the ice. So I�challenge you to beat my bracket!
