Hartford Whalers (129-33) vs. San Jose Sharks (136-26)

Well, what can you say about these Finals? These are possibly the two best single-season teams in the history of the NHL. The Hartford Whalers have won 12 Stanley Cups, much more than anybody else, and the San Jose Sharks have won 3. The Sharks are also the defending champions, and the Whalers won the year before.

This series is a rematch of 1955 (Hartford won), and 1958 and 1964 (San Jose won both of those). I'm going to say that with the way that San Jose has been playing, going 12-0 in the playoffs so far, the Sharks will win this series in five.
