If you could be assured your team would win the SC, would you rather have them sweep, or win in 7?

Before the Pens fans start howling, I'm not trying to say anything about the Wings sweeping. I want them to win, but I'm still hoping for a better fight. Just a hypothetical question.

    7 games are more intense. I would like a sweep but if they were assured to win i would want it to be a well fought series.

    I don't have a favorite team the SC (whatever that is), but if I did I would prefer it to go 7 games, with 35 or 40 full extra innings without anyone scoring a run, so that everyone would be so tired they could barely stand or walk, let alone run; and both teams would be out of pitchers, and right down to the batboy. It could go on for days . . . Then, the winning run might not be scored until the first game next season.

    7 games! There is nothing better than a "prize-fight" going long, with each team dominating at times, with the fans of each team building excitement, and the players having to go to complete "war" to win!

    7 game series are far more interesting in the earlier rounds of the playoffs, and are fantastic to watch in the Finals. If my team were in the Finals, this is what I would want for the most excitement, most memories, most tupsy-turvy-roller-coaster emotions, and most sweet of victories!

    Of course, I am a Leafs fan, so I'm just hoping they win one in my lifetime (and I'm 37 already)! ;-)

    properly, think of relating to the Celtics, (66 win team). they have the terrific checklist, the biggest unmarried season turnaround, so each and all of the stress is on them. each and all of the media is rooting for them, so thay have plenty to stay for and function plenty extra rigidity. regardless of the undeniable fact that, the hawks, (37) have been xpected to get swept. they have not got anyting to lose, so as that they are merely attempting tutor people incorrect and supply the Celtics a combat. The celtics on the different hand have averything to play for and if hteylose, they are going to be in serious hardship. on the fifty seven win team, its all approximately journey. The nuggets are not very experieced nd did not appear like thaty wantd to win. The Lakers, fifty seven win team, have Kobe bryant, very expericend, and Phil Jackson, 9 NBA titles. They understand a thank you to win and are not under a super number of presssure

    At this point I'd take anything (Leafs fan here), but I'd prefer a 7 game series. More intensity, drama, and excitement, and it would make winning the Cup that much more gratifying.

    I'd like the Wings to win it in five so they can do it on their home ice, although 7 would accomplish the same thing.

    7 absolutely(as long as I know they'll win) the last game of a series that goes to 7 is probably the best game you'll ever watch.

    sweep, because you don't need to go through all of that Game 7 pressure

    Game 7 OT would be the best!

    Win in 7 due to the tv revenue, ticket sales, concession sales, and the merchandise sales. It all adds up to big $
