HISTORY: this is the first time these 2 teams have ever met in a playoff game, but the ducks won the regular season matchup ups taking 4 of the 5. all 4 of those wins were in either OT or Shootout. Sounds like it'll be a late night tonight!
FROM THE CREASE: goalie report
QUICK - is crazy good, just like a pop-tart! he always does well in the playoffs - expect him to be a wall.
HILLER OR ANDERSEN - as of last night we don't know who the ducks goalie will be - that's a killer. lack of leadship in that position is detremental to the confidence of the whole team. Andersen has started all the playoff games thus far and Hiller has only taken 1 shot. If it ain't broke, don't fix it - i'd go with andersen, but we'll see.
Andersen
Hiller
CAREY PRICE V. TUUKKA RASK (or Montreal Canadiens v. Boston Bruins)
HISTORY: The canadiens have won 5 straight in the playoffs and seems like they are the hot-hot-hot-team of the day. But the bruins have been here before. The #1 team in the league heading to the playoffs lost the first game to the flyers then won 4 in a row.
FROM THE CREASE: goalie report
RASK - my personal fav goalie right now. his stats are amazing (GAA 1.52 SV% .946) but stats don't put points on the board. He's got to stay focused to stop the puck!
PRICE - in game 1 - he was killer stopping 48 of 51 shots thru double OT. Keep doing what he's doing and the puck just won't get past him!
no live updates tonight - family stuff. enjoy the pics!
