Bit of a homer? Maybe. But Vncouver had been on cruise control since January, they have no depth and the Kings badly outsize them. LA uses their size and strength, combined with the stifling defense, I see no reason why they can't take down VAN. Vancouver is the most overrated team in the playoffs, AFAIC, and LA matches up real well, not to mention have been one of the league's elite teams since the Carter trade. People point at their offense, but since the Carter trade LA was top 5 in the entire league for GF, while still being top 5 in GA. They are damn good team, IMO and had they won the division would be my pick out of the west since their road would be much easier.
