Stanley Cup Update

The Stanley Cup Playoffs have begun and, as reported late last month, it has come down to the top two teams in the 2010 NHL: the Chicago Blackhawks and the Philadelphia Flyers doing battle on the ice for the highest honor in ice hockey.

The Chicago Blackhawks have not be in the running for the Stanley Cup since they lost to Pittsburgh in 1992 and haven’t brought the Stanley Cup home since 1961. The Flyers have not taken the Stanley Cup since their two year run in 1974-75, and they also have lost the Stanley Cup to Detroit in 1996. So both of the these teams are after what has been unobtainable for them for years.

The first game of this series was played Saturday May 29th 2010 in Chicago, and the Chicago Blackhawks took the first game with a score of 6 to 5. It was an action packed game with the Philadelphia Flyers taking an early first period lead of 3 to 2. But the Chicago Blackhawks answered back in the second period with three goals to the Philadelphia Flyers’ 2, which tied this game 1 up: 5 to 5. But then Tomas Kopecky, who was in for an injured player, scored the game winning goal for the Chicago Blackhawks in the third period to make the final score of game one 6 to 5 Blackhawks.

These two teams will face off again on Monday May 31st in Chicago for game two, then on to Philadelphia on June 2nd and 4th 2010 for games three and four.
