Yes, we know the Tampa Bay Lightning are good. They’ve been the team to beat since opening night. But ladies and gentleman, boys and girls: the Boston Bruins are for real and they’re going to the Stanley Cup Final.
Tuesday night’s victory said it all for me. On the road, in Long Island against the New York Islanders and it wasn’t even close. Yes, New York barely had any shots, and none of those seemed to give Bruins goaltender Tuukka Rask a hard time. He’s been LIGHTS OUT since the National Hockey League All-Star break and takes the criticism well.
