The Pick: Canucks +128
Bruins vs. Canucks Betting Overview
Game 6 finds the Vancouver Canucks one game away from being the Stanley Cup champions for the first time in their franchise history. The sports world saw the Dallas Mavericks claim their fist now it must be time for hockey to do the same. The Canucks have won all three games in this series on home ice and hope to avoid the fate in Boston that they have allowed to be done to them. If the Boston Bruins win the scene moves to Vancouver on Wednesday.
Boston Bruins News and Betting Tips for Monday, June 13, 2011
Boston has not won a Stanley Cup since 1972 but have had five other opportunities before this series. Goaltender Tim Thomas had a 110 minute and 42 seconds shutout streak snapped in Game 5 when Maxim Lapierre scored in the third period. Thomas had stopped 774 shots in the playoffs for second place in playoff history. The Bruins are 9-3 in the playoffs on home ice and one more win makes coach Claude Julien in first place in Boston hockey for the most playoff wins. Reigning Hart Trophy winner Henrik Sedin has yet to secure a point in the Stanley Cup Finals. By comparison, he collected 21 points (two goals, 19 assists) in the first three rounds. Boston went 0-for-4 for the second consecutive game to fall to 3-for-21 for the series and 6-for-78 in the playoffs.
Vancouver Canucks News and Betting Tips for Monday, June 13, 2011
Vancouver was struggling in Games 3 and 4 and were concerned with the work of goalie Roberto Luongo but saw him turn the tables for a 1-0 shutout and 31 shots stopped to notch a victory. Defenseman Chris Tanev played well in his Stanley Cup debut. Tanev set up Tanner Glass with what should have been the first goal of the game. With a gaping net, Glass couldn’t settle the puck and was unable to unleash a quality shot. Vancouver native Milan Lucic did not register a shot in Game 5 for the Bruins. He has one goal and one assist in the series. Vancouver continued to struggle with the man advantage in the Stanley Cup Finals. The Canucks are 1-for-25 on the power play.
Our Canucks vs. Bruins Pick and Predictions
Look for this to be a low scoring affair as both teams have notched up their defense for the series. Luongo vs. Thomas has not played but only on Game 5 of this series. The Sedin boys must take charge and get the offense on the scoreboard. With our free pick it is time for Vancouver to win on the road and secure their first Stanley Cup at +128
