The Conference Finals are over. Both teams have advanced, and Lord Stanley's Cup is awaiting it's newest suitor. On Saturday, the Blackhawks proved once and for all that it is:
Up next awaits the Tampa Bay Lightning. After going through the Red Wings, Canadiens, and Rangers, the Lightning now become the first team to ever play 4 Original Six teams in the same postseason. The experts are extolling the youth and newness of the Lightning, as well as their tenacity in dispatching 3 respected opponents, culminating in their defeat of the Rangers in Game 7 at the Garden. Of course, they're not the only team who won Game 7 in hostile territory. The Hawks have experience on their side, not to mention one of the best, skilled, and most playoffs-tested rosters in recent history. We will see just who is the better team starting on Wednesday.
