The Puck Drops Here 6.8.15: #StanleyCupFinal Games 1 & 2 Recap

By @CLulovics

GAME #1

The 2015 Stanley Cup finals between the Chicago Blackhawks and the Tampa Bay Lightning began on Wednesday night in Tampa. A lot of people thought that both teams would have a "feeling out" during the early stages of game 1 but it never happened. Tampa came out quicker than most people believed since players on Chicago definitely has more experience not only playing in the finals but playoffs overall. Tampa out shot Chicago in the first period 10-7 and out hit them 12-11. Alex Killorn opened up the scoring at 4:31 of the first period giving Tampa an early 1-0 lead after redirecting a shot from Anton Stralman. Both teams were 0-1 on the power-play in the first period.

The second period really didn't amount to much as it played out more like the first period should of with both teams "feeling each other out" but with Chicago starting to pick up steam and adapted to Tampa's playing style. Towards the end of the period Chicago goaltender Corey Crawford came up huge with back to back big saves against Tampa Captain Steven Stamkos keeping the score 1-0. Chicago was 0-2 on the power-play while Tampa was 0-1. Shots in the second saw Tampa out-shoot Chicago 8-6 bringing the games total to 18-13 in favor of the Lightning. Tampa also out hit Chicago 8-5 bringing those totals to 20-16 in favor of the Lightning as well.

Chicago came out in the 3rd skating, passing, and playing their game putting pressure on Tampa but Tampa's defense stood up to the task. Chicago's defense also was up to the task holding Tampa without a shot on goal threw the first 10 minutes into the third. In fact only 2 shots were taken in the first 10 minutes of the third both by Chicago. Tampa turned the puck over many times early in the third but Chicago couldn't take advantage of those turnovers. Chicago finally managed to put one in the back of the net at 13:28 by Teuvo Teravainen to tie it at 1-1. Another Tampa turnover resulted in an unassisted goal by Antoine Vermette at 15:26 which turned out to be the game winning goal. Chicago had the edge in shots in the 3rd 8-5 but Tampa had the overall lead 23-21. Tampa outhit the Blackhawks 9-5 in the period for an overall game advantage of 29-21. But shots and hits don't win games.

Both goalies played well throughout 3 periods. Maybe it was all the turnovers that did in the Lightning. Maybe it was Chicago's ability to adapt to Tampa's playing style. Nonetheless Chicago came out on top in game 1 in Tampa and taking away home ice advantage.

GAME #2

Going into game 2 Tampa needed a win to tie the series before heading to Chicago for the next two games as being down 0-2 would of almost spelled doom for the Lightning. Game 2 was completely different than game 1 was as the score showed in a 4-3 win for the home Lightning.

Scoring opened up in the first by the Lightning with a goal from Cedric Paquette with assists from Ryan Callahan and Victor Hedman. Tampa lead the first period with shots on goal by a slim 12-11 margin. Tampa was also 0-1 on the power-play while Chicago never got a chance in the period to try to capitalize with the man advantage.

Going into the second with the way both games have gone so far no one saw the offense production that would happen. Chicago came out shooting and found a way to beat Lightning goaltender Ben Bishop by scoring two quick goals at 3:04 by Andrew Shaw and 5:20 on a power-play goal by Teuvo Teravainen taking a 2-1 early into the second period. Only a minute and fifty two seconds later at 6:52 Tampa tied the game at 2 with a goal from Nikita Kucherov. Then at 13:58 the Lightning took back the lead with a goal from Tyler Johnson. That lead held the rest of the period as the Lightning took a 3-2 lead going into the 3rd and final period. Chicago was 1-2 on the power-play while the Lightning this period did not get a chance on the man advantage. Shots in the period once again saw Tampa with a lead 10-8 taking a game total of 22-19.

The third period could be described as wild. Chicago scored early at 3:38 to tie the game at 3 with a goal from Brent Seabrook. Tampa Bay goalie Ben Bishop left right after the goal and in came 20 year old Andrei Vasilevskiy. The relief was only brief as Bishop came back into the game. At 8:49 Jason Garrison of the Lightning scored to make the score 4-3 with a power-play goal beating Chicago goalie Corey Crawford. At the 12:19 mark of the period Bishop once again left the net and Vasilevskiy came back in for the rest of the game. Shots in the 3rd were 10-2 in favor of the Blackhawks and 29-24 also in favor of the Blackhawks. Tampa was 1-2 on the power-play while Chicago was 0-1 bringing the total with both teams 1-3 on the man advantage.

Tampa goalie Andrei Vasilevskiy became the first goalie to come in relief in the Finals since 1928. Tampa needed this win bad. Chicago had the opportunity to take a 2-0 lead in the series and heading home looking to clinch. If Tampa can steal two games in Chicago which is going to be hard to do they can come back home for game 5 and seal the Cup. But Chicago is a tough team who has been in the Finals before and know how to handle business. Games 3 and 4 will be interesting to see. Will Bishop come back into goal? Will Chicago be able to capitalize in their home arena? We will have to wait and see until Monday night June 8th.

The Puck Drops Here 6.3.15: #StanleyCupFinals Edition

By @CLulovics

The 2015 NHL Stanley Cup Finals will be contested by the Eastern Conference Champions Tampa Bay Lightning and the Western Conference Champions the Chicago Blackhawks starting June 3rd in Tampa. Let's take a quick look on how both teams made it to the Finals.

EASTERN CONFERENCE CHAMPIONS ROAD TO THE FINALS
The Tampa Bay Lightning in the first round of the Playoffs faced off against the Detroit Red Wings in the first time both teams have faced eachother in the playoffs. With Detroit making the playoffs for the 24th consecutive season might of been considered the favorite going into the first round match up with all the experience but the Lightning won the series after trading victories back and forth until Tampa pulled off back to back wins in game 6 and 7 propelling them into the Eastern Conference Semi Finals against the Montreal Canadians who took care of the Ottawa Senators in 6 games.

Against the Canadians the Lightning won the series in 6 games but not without the Canadians putting up a fight. Tampa started off fast winning the first 3 games before Montreal came back and won game 4 stopping the potential sweep winning 6-2 and game 5 2-1. In game 6 back in Tampa the Lightning didn't want to go back to Montreal for a game 7 winning game 6  4-1 propelling them to the Eastern Conference Finals

The Lightning faced off against the Presidents trophy winner in the New York Rangers. Once again for the Lightning the series went 7 games. Home ice advantage did not seem to help either team this series as the home team only won 2 games and the visitors winning 5. The Rangers were seeking a return trip to the Stanley Cup Finals but the Lightning had other plans by defeating the Rangers in game 7 giving the Rangers their first ever game 7 home loss and sending them to the Finals for the second time in franchise history.

WESTERN CONFERENCE CHAMPIONS ROAD TO THE FINALS
In the first round the Chicago Blackhawks faced off against the Nashville Predators in a series that saw the Blackhawks win in 6 games. With Nashville having home ice advantage the two teams split the first two games in Nashville before the home team the rest of the series winning every game. The series was a hard fought battle with 2 overtime games both won by the Blackhawks a double overtime along with a triple overtime game.

In the Western Conference Semi Finals the Blackhawks swept the Minnesota Wild 4 games to 0. All but one game was decided by 1 goal and no overtime games. In game 4 the Wild at home and hoping to extend the series saw the Blackhawks complete the sweep by a score of 4-3 and propelling them to the Western Conference Finals for the third consecutive year and 5th time in the last 7 years.

Going up against the top seeded team in the Western Conference in the Anaheim Ducks, the Blackhawks were in for a hard fight if they wanted to return to the Stanley Cup Finals and they got just that in the Ducks. In a series that can be described as the "overtime" series in which saw 3 games go into extra period, a triple and double overtime both won by Chicago along with a single overtime game won by the Ducks. Both teams traded victories until the series was tied 3-3 and game 7 headed back to Anaheim where the Ducks had been 7-1 (their only loss coming to Chicago in game 2) the Blackhawks won 5-3 winning back to back games and sending them to the Stanley Cup Finals for the third time in the past 6 years.

Leadoff with Lee 2.25.15 #Browns #McCown #Kane #JoshHamilton

By @cleeverizon

- Josh McCown visited the Browns Tuesday & Wednesday. But before we get to excited about signing McCown, he also visited with Bills last week and met Bears & Jets at combine. However Josh McCown will make his decision on a team possibly in a few days. The Browns are in the running. And he wants  to talk things over with family. It sounds as if the Browns have offered him a contract.

He would be a good transition quarterback for the Browns as they prepare their future signal caller whomever that maybe. Even though I would rather have Sam Bradford who the Rams maybe be willing to part with for a 3rd round pick or future conditional 1st or 2nd round pick depending on Bradford's play and health. But the Browns will need to find out the punishment that he NFL will issue for "TextGate" before they can even dip their feet into those waters.

- Looks like the quarterback situation is going to get interesting, per Pro Football Talk the Browns Ray Farmer & Brian Hoyer are set to meet. It's a safe assumption they will be talking about the "TextGate" situation and both sides will determine where to go from there.

- The Browns are also rumored to be interested in Buccaneers free agent DE Adrian Clayborn. He's had 13 sacks in 4 years in the NFL but was hurt in 2012 and 2014. His rookie year in 2011 he has 7.5 sacks and started all 16 games. Most recently in 2013 he has 5.5 sacks and 16 games started. He suffered a torn bicep cost him his 2014 season. Despite his two season ending injuries Clayborn has produced on the field. Cleveland needs help on the defensive line and would be ready to play right away rather than sit like a rookie would.

- NFL sources have indicated that free agent wide receiver Cecil Shorts and the Browns have mutual interest with each other. Shorts would provide a big target as he is 6'0, 200lbs and would allow Andrew Hawkins and/or Miles Austin to play their natural slot position.

- Sources close to Browns tight end Jordan Cameron have said he is not interested in resigning with the team and will test the free agent market.

- The Packers released LB AJ Hawk, their 2006 first-round pick. It saves them $3.5M this year, which comes off their cap.  He ranks No. 1 in franchise history with 1,118 tackles.

- The Detroit Lions have parted ways with RB Reggie Bush.  

- Bulls announce Derrick Rose will undergo surgery after an MRI revealed medial meniscus tear in right knee and will be out indefinitely. The Bulls have paid Derrick Rose $944,608 for each game he has played in over the last 3 seasons (56 games).

- LeBron James set the all-time NBA record for assists by a forward, with 6,136 passing Scottie Pippen (6,135).

- Kendrick Perkins officially signed with the Cavs Tuesday, his Cleveland salary will be $443.068 for the remainder of the season with a salary-cap number of $279,975.

- Chicago Blackhawks superstar Patrick Kane is expected to miss 12 weeks after undergoing surgery of his left clavicle. The Florida Panthers' Alex Petrovic cross checked Kane in the lower back which led Kane to be slammed into the boards, causing the fracture. The regular season ends April 11, with the playoffs starting a week later. Kane would be expected to miss the start of the playoffs with hope that he could return in the Western Conference finals, should Chicago reach that far.

- Los Angeles Angels outfielder Josh Hamilton could be facing some discipline from Major League Baseball after revealing that he's had a drug related relapse which may have included but not limited to cocaine use. Hamiltion is currently undergoing rehab after his shoulder surgery earlier this month and is expected out until at least May. That could change now, obviously. Hamilton signed a 5-year, $125 million deal with the Angels before the 2013 season.

- Former St. Louis Ram Michael Sam and Olympic gymnast Nastia Liukin have joined the cast of the new season of Dancing With The Stars.

- The city of Inglewood, CA has approved the "Hollywood Park" stadium plan project to build a Los Angeles based NFL stadium for the St. Louis Rams. The unanimously approved project would build a $1.86 billion, 80,000 seat stadium adjacent to the multi-use redevelopment at the old Hollywood Park racetrack. Workers could potentially start building by the end of 2015.
