I think that when a team is down 3-0 the adrenaline kicks in and they go bionic for a win. The problem is that even though the win breaks the cloud over their heads, the adrenaline runs out. What happens after that is dependent upon how much grit, will, and mental focus they have. The Bruins had that last year and that's how they hoisted the cup: scoring by committee, super human goal-tending, and a never say die attitude.
With all due respect, the Canucks (and the Caps) have talent but I don't think they have the grit. The Pens (barring a whining superstar who's name I won't mention) have grit but they may have forgotten where they keep it. We shall see.
You gotta love playoff hockey. This year has been the most entertaining first round since the lockout. The Pens Flyers are the best show in town. Who would have thought the Pres Trophy team almost getting swept?
Tip of the day: Don't forget all the things you love that begin with the letter "B"
