Finals

This 7 game final for the CUP was the strangest CUP FINALS I have EVER experienced in over 30 years of watching! It was like watching a completely different teams when on the road (Boston) and when at home, it was odd. In the regular season we scored the most goals and had the least goals against.

The biggest lesson of this playoffs is the difficulty of winning that 4th win in the best of 7 series.

Patience with a player or a system is difficult when one is losing and is easier when winning. I will be posting on the season and the lovely play-offs shortly.
