Stanley Cup Finals Are Tied Two Games Apiece

The Stanley Cup Finals are even at two games apiece (more good news for NBC) after the Chicago Blackhawks won on the road (2-1) vs the Tampa Bay Lightning in game four last night.

In a series in which all four games have been decided by one goal, Chicago’s Brandon Saad had the game winning goal, breaking a (1-1) third period tie.

So far the series has followed the pattern of Chicago’s 6 game triumph vs the Boston Bruins in the Stanley Cup Finals two seasons ago.

In that series and in the first four games in this one “Chi” won games one and four and lost games two and three. They won that series in 2013, in six games.

If that happens again and it is Chicago in six, it would be the first time the Blackhawks win the Stanley Cup at home since 1938.
