Phoenix, an almost bankrupt team, took them to a game 7.

Phoenix, a team owned by the NHL, took them to a game 7.

I'm surprised the Wings have made it this far. They were terrible the first half of the season. We figured they wouldn't even make the playoffs. But after the Olympic break, they had the best record in the NHL.

Wouldn't it be neat if the conference finals, both of them, were composed of Original Six teams?

Posted by Matt Pepin, Boston.com Staff April 28

A statue commemorating Bobby Orr's famous goal that clinched the 1970 Stanley Cup for the Bruins will be unveiled Monday, May 10, at 11 a.m. outside TD Garden.

The ceremony will take place on the 40th anniversary of the Bruins' win over the St. Louis Blues in Game 4 of the 1970 Stanley Cup finals. The statue depicts Orr flying through the air immediately after scoring the goal. It was sculpted by Harry Weber.

The statue will be permanently installed in front of TD Garden at the mouth of the west walkway facing Causeway Street.

WOW....what an exciting game! My son actually let me watch some of it too I was actually sort of expecting a blow out by Washington. I'm happy though, I think the Pens/Habs series is going to be an exciting one!
