Kings Advance To Stanley Cup Final
Congratulations to the Los Angeles Kings, who have advanced to their first Stanley Cup Final since ‘93.
Russia Wins World Championships
Alex Semin scored two goals and added an assist in leading Russia to a 6-2 win over Slovakia at the IIHF World Championships. Alex Ovechkin had two assists playing with Semin and Pavel Datsyuk. Former Capital Semyon Varlamov was the backstop for Russia and Caps prospect Evgeni Kuznetsov was also a memeber of the gold winning squad.
Now I wonder, is this the last time we see Ovechkin and Semin playing together until the Olympics?
Kronwall With An Epic Hit At The World Championships
Who says there are no big hits in international play with the larger ice. Niklas Kronwall lays a huge hit on Kaspars Saulietis. Welcome to the big leagues and as saltsmcds would say, “Keep the change.”
