Can the Pens be the top seed in 2009-2010 AND win the Stanley Cup?

The Pens won the whole thing as a four seed, needing to win two tough seven game series as the lower seed against both Detroit and Washington, but next year can they also have a great regular season to go along with another Stanley Cup run?

I don't want the Penguins to beat the Caps, but we could easily see the Capitals winning the East, as well as Boston, and even Carolina could have done it too given how crazy and exciting the Eastern playoffs were this year.

The East in the NHL is pretty much the same as in the NBA. The Caps playing the Celtics role, the Bruins playing the Cavs role Smile

and the Pens playing the Magic role.

Well. I can certainly see it. But I dont see them winning it again, either way.
