5 NHL Teams In The 2019 Playoffs That Have A Shot At Winning The Stanley Cup

I am never one who makes predictions when it comes to the playoffs. That's usually because everyone's game changes this time of year. The teams that you are thinking shouldn't be there end up surprising you. But this year the playoff atmosphere feels different. It feels like it has been playoff time since the trade deadline back in February. Everyone has something to prove and have been making noise the last few months.

Here are a few of those teams that show they are a force to be reckoned with:

1. Nashville Predators

Predlines

It seems that every year at this time Nashville has been a force. They are a team that thrives under the pressure. This whole season they were impressive, which shouldn't shock anyone. This team has found the formula to winning, which why I believe they could go all the way this year.

2. Washington Capitals

Sports Illustrated

The only way to follow up winning the Stanley Cup is the have another amazing season. They look strong enough this year to repeat. The team is one that could almost be considered a dynasty.

3. Calgary Flames

SBNation

I know I am shocked to say it, but the Calgary Flames actually have a shot of winning the Stanley Cup. They have had a great season this year. The team is young enough to go the distance. They have a great core that they feed off of every night. This year will not be last that we hear from them.

4. Tampa Bay Lightning

Sports Illustrated

The Presidents Cup winners. The most wins this season. Enough said.

5. Las Vegas Golden Knights

Las Vegas Review Journal

It was a toss-up between them and Dallas, but I chose Vegas. Statistically, they had the better season. They are a strong enough team to outlast their opponents.

I may not know who is going to the Stanley Cup yet, but one thing is for sure the playoffs are going to be fun. It is going to be a good season to watch the Stanley Cup playoffs. Hockey fans everywhere will not be disappointed this year.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
