Canucks Going for the Sweep
The Canucks have done all of the little things right and are on the verge of a four-game sweep against the defending Stanley Cup champs. Vancouver beat Chicago 3-2 on Sunday in a game that Chicago had every chance to win. The Blackhawks are getting nothing out of their star players and Vancouver goaltender Roberto Luongo is making all the big saves. Luongo had 30 saves on Sunday and Mikael Samuelsson scored the game-winner in the third period for the Canucks.
Vancouver is just better
The Blackhawks are losing this series because they simply are not as good as the Canucks. And we knew this before the regular season even began. Chicago decided to be cheap and not keep their players and it has cost them all year. Chicago barely made the playoffs and they are not going to beat Vancouver. Chicago might be able to win Game 4 on pride and because they are well coached, but maybe not. Chicago has a few big stars but they don’t have the depth or the goaltending that Vancouver has. The Canucks have done just enough to win the last two games getting one goal victories. Vancouver hasn’t really played that great in this series it is just that Chicago simply isn’t very good.
History against Chicago
Only three teams in NHL betting history have ever come back from losing the first three games of a series although it did happen in last year’s playoffs when Philadelphia shocked Boston.
