Default Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread

Congrats to the Bruins

I was reading some of the tidbits from the game and series, thought I'd share a couple:

Quote:
The oldest Conn Smythe Trophy winner in NHL history stopped a jaw-dropping 238 of the Canucks' 246 shots in the finals for a .967 save percentage. That's even better than his .940 mark and 1.98 goals-against average for the entire postseason.
Quote:
The Bruins are the first team in NHL history to win a Game 7 three times in the same postseason, and Thomas posted shutouts in the decisive game of the Eastern Conference finals and the Stanley Cup finals.
And my favorite mistake from ESPN.com, doesn't anyone proofread articles??

Quote:
The NBA finals ended before the Stanley Cup finals for the first time since 2002, when the Los Angeles Lakers beat the Detroit Red Wings to their respective titles.
