After a season that
barely even happened, we now find ourselves at least four games away from know
who will be the champions of the NHL. There is not much I can say about either
of these two teams that everyone doesn’t already know.
The Chicago Blackhawks
are the best of the west have their high powered offense which has averaged
2.76 goals per game during the playoffs. They came from three down to beat the
Detroit Redwings and became the first team to beat the Los Angeles Kings on
their home ice.
Goalie Corey Crawford has
not always looked the best, but he has put together some good streaks of net minding.
Kane, Sharpe and Hossa have been dangerous for most of the playoffs and seem to
be getting in rhythm at just the right time. Their offense can overpower almost
any goalie in the NHL right now, but there will be one it can’t. Tuukka Rask.
That’s right, I’m picking
the Bruins because of the brick wall that has popped up in front of their goal.
Rask only allowed two goals in four games against the number one offense in the
league and made it look very easy. Though it is said every year, defense wins championships
and that’s what the Bruins have.
Rask will continue his
great net minding and will vanquish the Hawks in 6 games with the help of David
Krejci who will add to his impressive 21 points in the postseason.
Thanks for reading!
