In the Eastern Conference
The Pittsburgh Penquins vs. the Boston Bruins Here, you have the 2011 Stanley Cup champions vs. the 2009 Stanley Cup champions in a match up that should be as surely entertaining and exciting
as getting a puck to the face. While Pittsburgh had the best offense in the league this year and added in some experienced big name rental players at the trade deadline, the most surprising thing is that they have been relying on their back up goaltender to get them this far after their number one goalie went down with
'can't-stop-a-friggin'thing-itis' in the first round. On the other side, the Boston Bruins are big, bad and have the giant
Zdeno Chara on their team, the only player who could technically help clean the center ice score clock without the need of a ladder. They also picked up their own trade deadline ringer, Jaromir Jagr, a future hall-of-famer and former Pittsburgh Penquin which the media will continually point out during pre-games. The two players to watch will once again be the goalies; Boston's always fun to say Tuuka Rask against the awesome scoring might of the Pittsburgh Penquins and Pittsburgh's aging Kevin Costner-like warhorse Thomas Vokoun against the pile of Boston Bruin sweaters that will continually run into him throughout the series. Bleeding; Advantage Pittsburgh Winning; Advantage Pittsburgh
