Bill Guerin and the Penguins are the Champs!!


If there was anyone who deserved to win the Stanley cup last night it was former captain Bill Guerin. The man who stuck it with the Islanders for one and a half tough season raised the cup for just the second time in his NHL career. One of the NHL’s classiest players, Guerin was traded at the deadline to the penguins and made an impact on the team. Guerin and the penguins got past the Flyers in a six game set with a game 2 game winning goal by Guerin himself. In the Semis it was a battle of the superstars as it was Ovechkin vs. Crosby. The penguins took it to 7 as they edged out the Capitals in a 6-2 win in the final game. In the Conference finals They annihilated the surging Hurricanes sweeping them in 4 games. In the Cup finals Coming back from a 2-0 deficit the penguins won games 3 and 4 to tie the series, but they would loose game 5 in a dismal 5-0 lose at the Joe. Back at the Igloo the Penguins won 2-1 and in game 7 the Pens sealed the deal winning their first cup since 1992. To sum it up, Congratulations Bill Guerin and the Penguins on your Stanley Cup championship.
