The Stanley Cup Final between the Boston Bruins and St. Louis Blues begins Monday at 8 p.m. at TD Garden.
Patrice Bergeron and co. swept the Hurricanes in the Eastern Conference final and will have gone without game action for 11 days by the time the puck drops. The Blues punched their ticket to their first Cup Final appearance since 1970 after eliminating the Sharks on May 21.
After eliminating two teams that had completed sweeps in the previous round, the Bruins are now the team advancing after a sweep, just four wins from Stanley Cup glory.
