So we had a losing night last night as a goal wasn’t scored in the first 9:30. It took until 5 minutes into the 3rd period for the first goal to be scored as the Bruins hung onto the 1-0 victory.
The Penguins. What else can be said about them. They had the best team in the league on paper yet could not get it done we it counted most. With the salary cap going down for next season it will be interesting to see what next years Penguins team will look like.
The Bruins handled them easily and quickly and swept them to become the Eastern Conference champions and are back in the Stanley Cup finals for the 2nd time in 3 years.
Tonight we get game 5 of the Kings vs Blackhawks series with the Hawks holding a nice 3-1 lead. With the game being played in Chicago things don’t look good for the Kings who have been terrible on the road this year. Plus the crazy Blackhawk fans can be intimidating so the Kings can’t be looking forward to this.
Here is the tip for game number 5 of the Kings – Blackhawks Western Conference final:
Kings vs Blackhawks: Blackhawks To Win
It’s the return of Duncan Keith tonight so I expect the already flawless and sturdy defenseman to play that much better after having a game off.
The Hawks have been great at home while the Kings have been brutal on the road. This is just not the type of game where the Kings are going to turn things around. Chicago are within spitting distance of the Stanley Cup Finals – and they’ve already survived a big scare when it came to the Detroit Red Wings.
Chicago are going to wrap it up tonight. The odds aren’t great but that’s the best bet to go with over at Bet365 (Americans: We recommend http://www.bovada.lv.
