Stanley Cup Preview


This year's Final sets up to be an exciting one, with all the star power and speed on the ice. 

For the Blackhawks, this is familiar territory with it being the 3 Cup Final appearance in 6 years, hoisting 2 Cups. We all know the names Patrick Kane, Jonathan Toews & Marian Hossa, but this year's postseason star has been defenseman, Duncan Keith. The future Hall of Famer has lived on the ice the the Hawk zone, keeping goalie Corey Crawford away from as many pucks as possible. 

As for who Keith will be chasing around, that mainly would be Steven Stamkos. He seems to be the catalyst of the Tampa Bay offense, who makes their first appearance in the Cup Final since they won it in 2004.

Both teams have shown they can beat quality teams along the way to their match-up. All hockey fans are hoping for an instant classic.I'm sure most hope it can match the NBA Finals. 

I'm predicting Chicago in 6 games!

Coverage begins at 7pm on NBC
