2016 Stanley Cup Final Preview

The finals start tomorrow and it should be a memorable one for sure. First off the coaches have lead their teams to the finals with Mike Sullivan coming in after Mike Johnston got fired when the Penguins kept on losing games. Mike Sullivan lead his team to a 33-16-5 record to the playoffs. Peter DeBoer was the new head coach for the Sharks and used his past experience from the New Jersey Devils to get his team back into the playoffs after missing it the year before. Both teams have amazing coaches which should be something to look after in the finals. Sidney Crosby is trying to tie Mario Lemieux with two cups and build his legacy as a Pittsburgh Penguin. Everyone on the Sharks is trying to make history with the first Stanley Cup for the Sharks in their 25 year history. Joe Thornton and Patrick Marleau have been on the Sharks for the longest time and have never made it to the finals until now and they finally have a chance to get the Cup. Marleau has played for the Sharks for 1,576 game and 18 years and has always stayed loyal to the Sharks, and Joe Thornton has been with the Bruins first then got traded to the Sharks and has played 950 games with the Sharks. Phil Kessel has been getting total crap his whole career for being a non coach able player, but he can finally prove everyone wrong with a Stanley Cup and get the credit he deserves for being a superstar while playing for the Maple Leafs. There will be a crazy goalie battle between Matt Murray and Martin Jones who are both new to their teams and have been stellar in the playoffs. Matt Murray took the starting job from Marc-Andre Fleury and got replaced in game 5, but came back to win game 6 and 7. He has played for the Penguins the whole playoffs except for game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals and has been playing like Tim Thomas in the 2011 playoffs. Martin Jones was acquired from the Kings when he was a backup and has become the best goalie on the Sharks. The Hagelin Bonino and Kessel line is something to watch out for since as a second line they have dominated. The Pens have to watch out for Joe Pavelski who has 13goals in 18 playoff games for the Sharks. Kris Letang and Brent Burns are some of the league's best defenseman who will be battling it out for the Cup which should be entertaining. You should expect anything from this series and be entertained. Who will win it all? Who is the better goalie? Will the superstars show up in this series? stay tuned....
