A roundup of predictions from around the hockey media world of who they think will win the Stanley Cup.
We've done this kind of review/roundup before, where we gather the predictions of a bunch of different media types and compare them across the board to see who is coming out the more popular pick.
For this one, we've gathered the opinions of people from ESPN, CBS Sports, and USA Today. If we come across others, we'll update the post accordingly.
