It's Those Chicago Blackhawks Again ! They're Back In The NHL Final 4

The Chicago Blackhawks have won 2 of the last 4 Stanley Cup Finals. By the way they are the defending Stanley Cup champions after beating the Boston Bruins last June. In 2010 they beat the Philadelphia Flyers to claim the Cup as well. During the 2013-14 NHL regular season the true Monsters Of The Midway finished with 107 points in the loaded Western Conference. The playoff team to beat out West especially after acquiring goaltender Ryan Miller from Buffalo, were the St. Louis Blues. Let's go back to the opening round this year St, Louis held a 2-0 series lead vs. Chicago. The Blachawks would go on to win 4 straight and beat the 111 point Blues 4-2. Chicago in the Western Conference Semifinals went on the oust the Minnesota Wild 4-2. Now they will await the Game 7 winner of Anaheim who led the West and 2nd in the NHL with 116 points and Los Angeles who finished with 100 points. The Kings are too shabby themselves going down 0-3 in round one to win 4 straight while eliminating San Jose. The Ducks once trailed LA 2-0 then won 3 straight to go up 3-2 before LA won Game 6 to tie the series 3-3. Chicago will most certainly be a tough out as they reach the NHL Final Four once again.
