Since then the final has featured teams that I detest and had no interest in watching win a cup, namely Chicago, Pittsburgh, Nashville, Washington, and Vegas (an expansion team that made the whole league look like a joke). Looks like this year will be no different. I look forward to accidentally stumbling across an account of Boston's five game series win sometime in July. It's a long way to October (sigh).
Here's the interesting thing though. Boston might have screwed up by sweeping Carolina. There's been a trend this playoffs where a team that swept their previous opponent lost the next series. CBJ and Islanders both got sweeps in round one and both lost in round 2. Carolina got a sweep in round 2 and lost the conference final. Blues goalie is playing really good so I could see them pull this off.
