Chicago Blackhawks Win Stanley Cup In Insane Finish
That was just about the nuttiest Stanley-Cup-clinching game you're likely to see. With 1:30 left in the game, the Blackhawks trailed 2-1 and Corey Crawford was heading for the bench for an extra skater. One minute and two Chicago goals later and it was Tuukka Rask heading for his bench. ...

Andrew Shaw Took A Puck To The Face
With just about four minutes remaining in the first period of Game 6 in Boston, Shawn Thornton fired a shot into the Chicago zone that deflected off Andrew Shaw's stick and into his face, leaving blood on the ice.

Game 6 Could Come Down To The Skating Wounded
They say the NHL playoffs are a battle of attrition, and the Blackhawks and Bruins, the last two teams remaining, remained remarkably unscathed until the finals. But a close, hard-fought series that's already required 20 periods over five games is taking its toll, and each team may or may not be wit...

Tuukka Rask Does Everything He Can, But Chicago Wins Game 5
Amid the 29 credited saves he made last night, Tuukka Rask made three or four exceptional saves and single-handedly kept the Bruins in the game all night, making the always-intense final minutes of the game possible.

Blackhawks Beat Bruins In Overtime, 6-5, To Tie The Series
That was fun, wasn't it? After this series's first three games only yielded 12 total goals, both teams went off tonight for 11 combined goals.

The Bruins Are Looking Impenetrable Again
After a 2-0 win—a merciful regulation win—Boston finds itself halfway to a Stanley Cup, so it's not too early to start thinking Conn Smythe. That talk begins and ends with the man in net, but that's only because MVP can't be a team award....

Tuukka Rask Shuts Out Chicago Despite "Shitty" Ice; Bruins Lead 2-1
Game 3 actually ended in regulation, a nice change of pace from the first two games, but not before a short scuffle with about 11 seconds left. It looked like it was going to get really ugly for a second, but the refs quickly got control of the action and the game ended without (much) incident. Unl...
