This is a 10* WESTERN-CONFERENCE FINAL TOTAL OF THE YEAR on the UNDER between the Chicago Blackhawks and the Anaheim Ducks.
I had a big play on the Blackhawks in Game 4 and obviously feel pretty good about the win after Chicago fell apart late to let the Ducks back into it. Anaheim would take a 4-3 lead late in the third period with the second-fastest three goals in Stanley Cup Playoff history: "If you look at all four games [in this series] they've been all tremendous hockey games," Anaheim coach Bruce Boudreau said afterwards. "One has to lose, one has to win. Usually when one of the teams makes a mistake, a good team capitalizes on it. That's what happened. We had our chances again to win it, but it didn't happen. So we'll just regroup. Now it's a 2-out-of-3. Let's go after it." As Boudreau said, this has turned into a three-game series and remember, after the Blackhawks won 3-2 in Game 2 at the Honda Center, Anaheim would respond with a 2-1 win in Game 3: "I think we're right there," Cogliano said. "I don't think they overwhelmed us with too much. I thought we had our looks. They had the more power plays and they converted at the end of the game to tie it up. To score three goals when you're down 3-1 speaks to the team, and there is no hanging our heads. Obviously it is a bad feeling, but we've got to battle back." After the epic Game 4 offensive outburst, I look for these teams to "return to normal;" also note that Chicago has seen the total go UNDER the number in a whopping 20 of 29 this year after scoring four goals or more in its previous contest, while Anaheim has seen the total dip below the posted number in a whopping 19 of 30 this season in the same position. After taking all of the above factors into consideration, in my opinion, all signs do indeed point to the UNDER as the savvy move in this contest.
