Absolutely anything can happen in the playoffs. A team that gets hot in the playoffs can do absolutely anything. Clinching an extremely hard earned playoff spot right at the dead end of the season can really fire some teams up. That, and luck is an insane factor. Reality is, the winner of the President's Trophy is the best indicator of which team is the "best", yet only 8 of 32 times has the Presidents' Trophy winner gone on to win the Stanley Cup.
Who knows, for all their weaknesses, maybe the Avs get red hot and go on a run. That's the fun of watching playoff hockey!
