Who is your pick to win Stanley Cup Finals?
And then there were two…the Vancouver Canucks and the Boston Bruin. These two teams have battled there way through three opponents and number of challenges to get here, now they stand just four wins away from skating the Cup.
It will certainly be the toughest four wins for either of them to get.
Vancouver, of course, entered the playoffs as the Presidents’ Trophy winners of the NHL. Their 54-19-9 record for 117 points was the best in the league. They finished 23 points ahead of the Calgary Flames. Boston’s 46-25-11 mark for 103 points was good enough to take the NE Division crown and the third seed in the east.
The Bruins and Canucks met only once this season with the Bs taking a 3-1 decision on February 26 in Vancouver. Nathan Horton tied the score at 1-1 half way through the second period while Milan Lucic’s wrister at 15:22 of the third proved to be the game-winner. Patrice Bergeron added an empty-netter with 73 second left to play while Tim Thomas stopped 27 of the 28 shots he faced to earn the win.
Both teams found themselves in a struggle just to get out of the first round earlier…Vancouver almost blowing a three games to none lead against the defending Stanley Cup champion Chicago Blackhawks before taking game seven on Alexandre Burrows’ overtime goal. The Bruins fell behind the Montreal Canadiens two games to none before working their way back. Horton’s overtime goal in game seven propelled Boston to round two.
Since that time, the Bruins swept the Philadelphia Flyers and then won a very heated seven-game Eastern Conference Finals against the Tampa Bay Lightning. The Canucks have gone 9-3 since losing game six on the opening round, knocking off Nashville in six and San Jose in five.
Even though they almost choked up their 3-0 lead against Chicago, Vancouver has never trailed in either of this springs playoff series. And learned a valuable lesson in first-round scare with Hawks.

Loading ...“They say the fourth win is the toughest one to get, and that’s been the case for us,” captain Henrik Sedin after his team disposed of the Sharks to advance to the SCF. “The other team is for sure treating it as a Game 7, and if you are not doing it yourself, it’s tough to win those games.”
Tim Thomas is 12-6 for Boston during the postseason with a 2.29 GAA, .929 SV% and 2 shutouts. He is 12-4 since the first two games versus the Habs and has played every minute in goal for the Bruins since postseason began.
“I think there were a lot of people thinking I was over the hill”, Thomas said following the 1-0 shutout win against Tampa Bay to clinch the east. “I knew it wasn’t true. But I put in a lot of work last summer. It’s amazing the year I had. I’m just so blessed.”
Thomas has faced 603 shots on his goal during 1,124:41 TOI this spring.
On the other end of the ice is Roberto Luongo, who sports almost identical numbers…12-6 with a 2.29 GAA, .922 SV% and 2 SO. He has seen 528 during 1,075:46 TOI.
Vancouver’s Henrik Sedin’s 21 overall points lead all skaters in this year’s playoffs, (2 goals, 19 assists), while Boston’s David Krejci’s 10 goals currently places him in a first-place tie with the Lightning’s Martin St. Louis. Former Thrasher Rich Peverley has 2 goals, 6 assists and is a +5.
Daniel Sedin is top goal-scorer on the Canuck’s squad with 8. He also has 8 assists. Ryan Kesler has been very impressive with 7 goals, 11 assists and a +6 rating.
Special teams favor Vancouver as they’ve continued their good work on the power play from the regular season. They have been successful 28.3% of the time when given the man advantage while the Bruins PP unit has converted just 8.2% of the time. The Canucks have killed off penalties at a rate of 80.6%, Boston’s PK unit has been successful 79.4% of the time.
Vancouver has taken an average of 31.2 Shots on goal in postseason play and has allowed 31.6 shots to be taken on their net. Boston numbers are 31.8 S/G and 33.6 SA/G.
The Canucks will certainly go into the series with a boost as it was learned Saturday that Manny Malhotra was cleared to play in the finals. His season had ended ten weeks ago when a deflected puck struck his left eye, requiring two surgeries to repair.
It still hasn’t been determined whether or not he will indeed play when the two teams face off for game-one Wednesday night, given he was cleared for full contact practice just last Friday.
“I realize there is a difference between taking two months off and coming back mid-January, and taking two months off and coming back the beginning of June,” said Malhotra, who tuned 31-years of age on the 18th of this month. “The pace and tempo of play is a lot higher, and you have the two best teams in the National Hockey League going at it. It’s been a dream of mine to play for the Stanley Cup, but at the same time I’m not going to put myself out there to be treated like a little brother.”
“I know there’s not going to be any gimmes out there.”
As for who I’m picking in the Finals, everything stats-related tells me this should be the Canucks to win. But I have a feeling this series will go seven games and in the end it comes down to the men between the pipes. So ask yourselves this question…if you had to pick one goalie in the league right now to go with to win just one game, who would it be?
For me, that man is Tim Thomas.
with fingers crossed…Boston in seven.

Re the Thrashers moving. We got screwed by the ASG. Out of towners just don’t have any concept about how badly the ASG has alienated their potential customers. End of discussion.
Re the Finals. Being from the south I was originally pulling for Tampa but as the 2 conference finals progressed I decided that Boston probably matches up better against Van so I was happy they held on. Although Claude Julien is not my favorite coach he DID do an excellent job of adjusting to Tampa’s system whereas Boucher did not manage to adjust to Boston’s pressure.
I am afraid that Vancouver is just too strong and too deep and Boston’s whole roster is going to have to play nearly perfect hockey to win. I don’t think their skill level will allow them to do this. Mostly though, I am just going to enjoy the games .

Wow, I’m disappointed in the few people who are taking out their frustrations on all Canadians. It’s nice to see that there are people in Atlanta who are passionate about hockey and who are obviously knowledgeable about the game. I’m sorry that your ownership was incompetent. I’m sorry that most people in Atlanta are not intererested in hockey like you fans. I’m sorry that you have so many sports options, that it’s a tough market.
We too have lost two NHL teams and we feel for you. It was when our dollar was low and the NHL economy was in American dollars, so our teams automatically had to make 50% more money than an American franchise. Gary Bettman didn’t think that Americans in southern markets would lend credibility to a league with franchises in Winnipeg or Quebec. I’m sure if he had it his way, we also would have lost Edmonton and Calgary. The NBA was really strong and popular at this time, and Bettman wanted to make the NHL the next NBA. We lost teams to Colorado and Phoenix.
In the past decade, our dollar has become strong and is worth more than the American dollar (only by a few cents). Hockey became even more popular in Canada after the dark days of the 90s when the NHL was absolute crap. All of the franchises in Canada are profitable again, and we have the two most profitable teams in the league. With so many teams in the NHL losing money, our profitable teams have to share their revenues with losing teams. The NHL knows that it has to either make teams profitable, or move them.
In Winnipeg, a mid-priced ticket will sell for $80. The cheapest ticket will sell for $50. There will be no promotions giving away tickets or selling them for cheaper. Also, they will have strong TV contracts with Sportsnet, TSN, and CBC. So even though they will only draw 3000 more fans than Atlanta (during a recession), they will make a lot more money.
As for the behavior of Winnipeggers that some have complained about; They’re excited. They felt that they were victimized in 1995, and this is their feeling of redemption. They should try to be more empathetic though, because they know the pain of losing their team.
Please don’t hold this against us Canadians. It is an unfortunate circumstance. But we are not stealing anything, we’re just salvaging the mess created by Atlanta Spirit.

Sorry Married – you seem like a nice person and had thoughtful, rational points…the vitriol here toward Canadians NEVER existed until trolls from Winnipeg came down to our site to rub the loss of our team in our faces. The silliness could have easily been avoided had the efforts of a few idiots from north of the border been kept to themselves. The issues we were discussing were ALL hockey related, then someone comes to spit in our faces. I don’t condone the responses (on wither side) – but this is a fight we did not start. If Canadians want to come here and talk hockey – they are welcomed. Just ask that they keep it civil…

All you have to do is listen to that nonsense and realize the total joke this group is. I am so angry and sad. He takes no personal responsibility. How he can say those things when his partner says he doesn’t know a thing about hockey? When asked what he has to say now, he says “Go Thrashers”. Does he mean that literally?

I will never condone ignorant comments by stupid people. However, there are idiots everywhere who like to leave inflammatory comments. Most people in Winnipeg would never be so offensive. The problem is that normal people do not go on a website from another city to leave comments. There will be more inflammatory comments because the jerks leaving them are deliberately looking for an audience to offend. And of course it’s easy when they’re faceless and far away.
After reading through these comments, I can see that there are a lot of passionate hockey fans in Atlanta. The reason why I came to this site was to see the local perspective and what kind of reaction people from Atlanta are having. I was honestly surprised that it is getting this coverage. When I am in the US, I usually don’t see much coverage for hockey, except for Detroit and Minnesota.
I just feel bad that these hard feelings exist between our two countries. I lived in Quebec City when the Nordiques moved to Colorado and people were upset like yourselves. In the following years, most former Nordiques fans cheered for Colorado because it was their players and their team, and that connection will always exist.
I hope you can accept that 99% of Canadians have no interest in offending you. I will apologize on behalf of my country for the others. I also hope that some of you make a trip to Winnipeg to see your team, or Tampa when they are down there visiting.

Now let’s address what’s become an unsavory issue on this blog…
Canadians, why are you here? Whether you’re friend or foe, it doesn’t matter because you’re still a constant reminder of Atlanta losing its team. You’re still the circling vulture just waiting for the last gasp. You would think that common sense would make this clear, but yet you’re still here.
I’m not interested in you, your city, your hockey history or your former and future franchises. I’m only interested in MY team, the Atlanta Thrashers, and that’s why I come to this blog. If you need attention or discussion that badly, then start a blog for YOUR team(s).
Again, Canadian friend or foe… you simply don’t belong here.

Red Light, if we go by stats and depth, and not intangibles, then Vancouver probably win this thing in six or fewer games. But, if we look at how badly the Canucks have faired in elimination games, and the lights out play of Tim Thomas, Boston has a better chance than most people think.
If I had to bet my mortgage, I’d take the Canucks. But since I don’t have to do anything of the sort, I’ll take Boston. At least, it’ll give me some reason to cheer for them. Red Light, side note, who’s the Conn Smythe winner? Tim Thomas, the American. Or Ryan Kesler, the American?
Could Tim Thomas win the playoff MVP, even if the Bruins lose?
Married to an American, I’ve enjoyed reading your posts. You are welcome anytime. It’s just a shame that Atlanta Hockey blogs are soon coming to an end. Permanently. I didn’t catch if you are from Manitoba or live there, but if you are, I want to wish the Thrashers good luck up there. All I ever, ever asked for this team … was for an ownership to care for it, nurture it, and give it some ‘tough love,’ when it was required. At long last, it appears that I’ll be getting my wish. But I never thought it would take relocation to make that happen. Ted Turner was out, almost as soon as he was in. He was the one who bought the team, initially, saying, “I regretted not buying the Flames for $15 million, many years ago.” On the name ‘Thrashers?’, Billionaire Ted said, “It’s my team. When you come up with $99 million to buy the team and operating rights to Philips Arena, then YOU can name it.” That was pretty much the last we heard of ol’ Ted. Then he sold everything, as AOL/Time/Warner phased him out. They didn’t know how they came to own the Thrashers, and sure didn’t know what to do with them. So, they sold them. To these clowns. This team, and this market, never had a chance, Married to an American. I’m not sure why the NHL chose to put a team in Atlanta, when they had absolutely no intentions of properly vetting any of the various ownership incarnations that is has had. Bygones. I know this much. In Winnipeg, they won’t have Don Waddell as GM or Team President for 11 seasons, without a playoff win. But, just try to imagine if they did? And every day, fans on blogs called for Waddell’s head, while True North retorted, “Don Waddell is very respected in NHL-circles. He’s not getting fired. We’re raising ticket prices. Deal with it.” Meanwhile, fans who were season ticket holders … watched the seats to their left and right being put on sale for 50-percent off by November. So, the next year, they didn’t renew, waiting for November to come, to sit in their exact same seat, discounted by 50-percent. This is what passed for ownership. Just try to imagine what would have happened if Waddell had been fired. A rush of ticket sales, at FULL PRICE, increased revenue-flow, and the possibility that the biggest EXODUS since scripture of pending free agents … could have been avoided. Savard, Kaberle, Hossa, Kovalchuk, Kubina … they all bolted, knowing ownership was a cluster. They can’t very well say, while under contract, “Look, the ownership is lost. They don’t know what they’re doing. The roster is a mish-mash of soap slivers, crushed together to make a ball. That’s not how you take a shower.” And that’s before we look at the Bobby Holiks and Slava Kozlovs that we got. Oh well. There’s not even really a legacy here, to speak of. The Atlanta Thrashers had nine (9) Top 10 overall picks with which to build the franchise into a contender. They didn’t so much as win a playoff game.
From the bottom of my heart, I hope the Thrashers succeed in Manitoba, and one day win the Stanley Cup. Somebody has to give this franchise some love. I think True North will do what is required to make them win, and have a fighting chance, out there in free agency. I’m confident they’ll install a GM who will run the team at the NHL level. Good luck, Thrashers. You’ll be missed here.
What about a possible return of the NHL to Atlanta? Frankly, if the NHL cannot properly vet an ownership group, to understand the dynamics of the sports landscape here, then I don’t want them to return. I was here and attending IHL games (Knights) before the NHL arrived. It was working pretty well, like that. Fans came out. The ownership TRIED to win, and actually produced a Turner Cup, in 1994. The NHL drove the Knights out of Atlanta, and up to Quebec. Hopefully, an AHL team will arrive, or the Gwinnett Gladiaors (ECHL) will be upgraded. The prices are reasonable, and they don’t allow failing GM’s to fester for a decade, in a consequence-free environment.

I’m Canadian and I live in Atlanta. Some of the behavior of Canadian fans at the Thrashers games showed their lack of class. Holding up signs saying The Thrashers are moving to Winnipeg or like those two idiot french canadians who wore Nordiques jerseys saying the Thrashers were going to become the Nordiques. It’s painful to lose a team. Most of the Canadians trolling on here haven’t had to dish out tens of thousands of dollars supporting a team with crap ownership. You can’t tell me that Atlanta doesn’t have good hockey fans. I met fans that paid for 10 lower level season tickets. Each seat costs 4K, that’s over 40K/season. You’re going to try and tell me those fans aren’t passionate about their team? I spent over 20K this past season on the Thrashers and management rewarded my loyalty by telling me to renew my tickets and put a deposit down up until a few weeks ago when the news about True North broke out. I do feel some kind of bitterness and resentment and pouring salt on the wound doesn’t make it any easier.

I’d say Glen Hall was the first of the butterfly goalies. I used to watch St. Louis when he and Plante played – 2 completely different styles.
Sorry to see the Thrashers leave, The management you have is about as bad as Vancouver had in the 80s and 90s. Even though Vancouver lives for hockey they repelled fans in droves. Traded away draft picks and good young players for has-beens.
Still, if you like hockey go for an AHL team. The AHL has good teams with good players at a price people can afford; I started going to Abbotsford Heat games (near Vancouver) because I can afford $50, not $500.

@Married – classy and respectful. Cheers to you! Yup, sucks to lose a team, but it aint over yet
though damn close. I have no problem with Canadians, and in fact, I like them a lot – actually looking for a job in Canada. I am pulling for the ‘Nucks, but just because I think they are a better team and am starting to gain a lot of respect for the Sedins. Two years ago they would have folded like origami but they have matured. Foppa says he is proud of his brethren 
Kesler is a man on a mission and a if they win the Cup he, in my books, is the hands on fav for the Smythe. If Boston wins, it will be because of Thomas. This will be very interesting and it is killing me that I have to wait another two days.

I picked the Bruins so Rawhide couldn’t catch me, so that I would stay with my convictions from my Oct. 8 post choosing the Bruins to win the Cup, because Smoothie is a closet Bruins fan, and because I just think they have something special going for them this year. I do feel bad for Rammer that he won’t be a part of it this year, because I do believe he had a lot to do with some of the players development there.
I understand and respect everyone’s feelings about the potential sale, but as I followed the game for 35 years prior to the Thrashers existence, I am not giving up on the game or the league. Will I miss the NHL not being here, darn right, but I can’t control what happens? I attended more than 300 games during the last 11 seasons and met a ton of great people in the organization, in the dressing room, in the stands and in the press box. The people I have met, the friends I have made, the hockey we discussed, and the ups and downs we shared are a lot more valuable to me than the sport or the team — and my life is richer because of it. I thank many of you here for that, and I think you know who you are.
But I also like what Thrashers27 just said. Stranger things have happened. Where there is a ray of hope, no matter how small you believe it to be, there is a chance for a reprieve.
