Tonight in Vancouver, it's the 2011 Stanley Cup Final and the Bruins are taking on the Canucks. In the regular season, these 2 teams only met once and the Bruins won that game 3-1 in Vancouver. But that means nothing when it comes to the playoffs, especially the Cup Final.
With the Bruins making it to the Cup final for the first time since 1990, they will be looking to get a Stanley Cup Victory. "You might never get a chance to do this again, have fun with it, just soak it all in as much as you can," said Mark Recchi, Boston's 42-year-old veteran and two-time Cup winner. "We know we have to get back into our bubble starting (Tuesday night) and (Wednesday), but get all the things we need to get taken care of, then focus on what we have to do as a hockey team."
What they have to do to achive this Stanley Cup goal is , get your powerplay and penalty kill to start working. The Bruins powerplay percentage is 3.3%. Thats not good enough against a Canuck team that has killed over 94% of penalty's. The second thing that they need to do is, Thomas to be on the top of his game. Most importantly of all is, they need to take a split back to Boston.
What the Canucks have to do to win:
The Canucks have never won a stanley cup. This would be the best time to do it. As no Canadian team has won a Stanley Cup since the Montreal Canadiens in 1993."As a kid I have won this trophy a million times in my basement," Glass said Tuesday. "To finally be here and experience everything that goes along with it is super exciting." What they are going to have to do if they want this cup is, score goals. They will need Luongo to be good. They will need to use there speed. Last, they have to keep the Bruins players away from the front of the net."This is what you play your whole life for," said Daniel Sedin, who led the NHL in scoring this season and is an MVP finalist. "It's a nice feeling. We have a lot of work ahead of us, but right now we're enjoying the moment."
Who Will win?:
The Canucks will win this series in 5 games.
