Neutral zone turn overs are the bane for each team thus far - the team that can control the neutral zone has a heavy advantage.

Tied series boys, anything can happen here
Rangers are playing a very dangerous brand of hockey through 1 period. Over-pursuing offensively, trying to create something.. If Tampa is patient, NYR will fall right into the trap.

Bob. yes -it's essentially a poor man's version of the East Coast final - the Ducks are a subpar Lightning team, and the Blackhawks are a subpar Ranger team.

It's cute and entertaining and all, but c'mon....we're watching the Stanley Cup right now...

Boom. Truth be told, Lundqvist should have stopped that one. Clear view of the puck, no excuse. 1-0 Lightning.
