commentary...

the Los Angeles Kings beat the top three seeds in the Western Conference,winning twelve of their fourteen games(beating the Vancouver Canucks,in five games,beating St. Louis,in a four game sweep,and beating the Phoenix Coyotes,in five games)... they have won eight straight road games(and ten straight road games,in the last two playoff years)... that is NHL record,for one year... they are 6 for 74,on the power play(not good),but they have scored five short-handed goals in the Stanley Cup playoffs,and they have only allowed five power play goals,overall,so far,in the Stanley Cup playoffs... even though they are the (so-called,ha,ha!!!) eighth seed in the Western Conference,it does not matter,because the Kings played well,going into the playoffs,and they are playing the best of any team,going into the Stanley Cup Finals,so either the New York Rangers,or the New Jersey Devils,are in for a war,in the Stanley Cup Finals... this may be the year,for a sleeper team,to win the Stanley Cup...
