Patrice Bergeron and new Canuck killer Brad Marchand each had 2 goals in a decisive 4-0 victory over the Vancouver Canucks in Game 7 at Rogers Arena in Vancouver. Its the Bruins first Stanley Cup since 1972 and there was no question on who won MVP, it was Tim Thomas, who was the star of the playoffs for the Boston Bruins.
Thomas made 37 saves in the effort, but the Canucks barely had any quality chances. The Bruins had 20 shots, but Luongo looked shaky on even shots fired from the Red Line. It was safe to say that the Bruins wanted it more. Daniel Sedin who guaranteed a win for the Canucks in Game 7 was a -4, meaning he was on the ice for all 4 goals against.
Now it is on to the off-season for both teams, one off-season that has become much longer for the Canuck fans to swallow as the road to returning to the Stanley Cup Finals will be much tougher next season.
