ESPN - Boston Bruins coach Claude Julien has a bit of a Midas touch right now.
If what he touches doesn't turn to gold, then it's certainly win. And lopsided wins at that.
With his team trailing 2-0 in the Stanley Cup finals heading into Game 3, Julien inserted tough guy Shawn Thornton and benched rookie Tyler Seguin. The Bruins went on to throttle the Vancouver Canucks 8-1. Then, without top-six forward Nathan Horton, who is out for the rest of the playoffs with a concussion from Vancouver defenseman Aaron Rome's hit, Julien moved Rich Peverley into Horton's spot for Game 4.
All
Peverley did was score the first and fourth goals in a 4-0 victory
Wednesday night that evened this Stanley Cup finals series at two games
apiece. But "even" is hardly something you would call this series after
the Bruins ran roughshod over the NHL's best regular-season team the
past two games.
With both the NBA Finals and the NHL Finals tied at 2-2 we are in for a good week of sports. The Bruins have turned on some kind of switch and lit up the Canucks 12-1 in the last two games. I can't see the Canucks coming back from those kinds of beat downs, but hey I'm not the most knowledgeable hockey fan so don't take my word for it. I do on the other hand hope both series go to seven games considering they will probably be played on back to back night.
