Could this Stanley Cup Final Be Any More Even?


The Blackhawks and Bruins played OT again. And it was fitting that Daniel Paille evened the series at a game apiece because these two teams are equally worthy Finalists playing fabulous hockey.

So we head to Boston for Game 3 tied 1-1, which assures the Bruins' Black Set 1 of getting two games of use.

After authenticating the saturated with sweat white jerseys following Boston's 2-1 victory in Overtime, I can report that the same five Bruins (Patrice Bergeron, Johnny Boychuk, Zdeno Chara, Nathan Horton and Dennis Seidenberg) wore more than one jersey in the game:

-Chara switched after the third period ... and wore his Set 2 in OT.
-Seidenberg alternated period by period, wearing Set 1 in the first period, third period, and second overtime. He wore Set 2 in the second period, first OT and third OT.
-Boychuk alternated period by period, wearing Set 1 in the first period, third period, and second overtime. He wore Set 2 in the second period, first OT and third OT.
-Horton switched after the second period ... and wore his Set 2 in the third period and OT.
-Bergeron switched after the second period ... and wore his Set 2 in the third period and OT.

For the second straight game, the Bruins dressed 22 player for warmup, including defenseman Matt Bartkowski and forward Carl Soderberg, who did not play.

On to Boston. See you Monday from TD Garden.
