How so? They pretty much dominated Tampa, but couldn't one get by Roloson, until late 3rd.
The only ones they dominiated this year was Philly, and that was after Buffalo broke them all up for Boston by taking them to 7 games. Boston was lucky to beat Montreal in 7 games and Tampa in 7 games.. If they don't split in the first two games with the Canucks, the series will be over in 5 games.
Soooo, lemme get this straight........The Bruins were "lucky" to beat Montreal in 7 games AND THEN "dominated" the Flyers but ONLY because Buffalo "broke them all up" (apparently the Canadiens didn't break the Bruins all up in their 7 game series
). WOW!!!! 
Nice try. That is not a valid excuse.

The Bruins beat them. Fair and square. They dominated them in every aspect of the game and the Bruins went 7 games in their first series too so they had just as much or little rest.
Canucks in 6
They'll split the first two in B.C, split in Boston, then Vancouver wins game 5 back home and wins their first Cup ever in Boston.
Obviously I hope I'm wrong, but Vancouver has that look of a wire-to-wire champion (Black Hawks scare notwithstanding). I just think the Canucks are too much for the B's.

I don't believe the Bruins were lucky. They earned their way to the SCF.
They had to come back from an 0-2 deficit against Montreal, merely their bitterest of rivals.
They conquered their Philly demons from a year ago (they were outshot in game 2, but Thomas kept them in it and they hung around before winning in OT).
Tampa was super tough- early goals scored, Roloson's brilliance, the Power play, lots of goals- but the Bruins persevered.

Winning a game can be a fluke, winning a series may involve plenty of luck, but you don't make it to the Stanley Cup Final without a lot of hard work and solid hockey.
A bit sloppy and lots of penalties, but lots of physical play and the Bruins are playing a good game. Never thought it would be scoreless going into the 3rd.
Seeing Vancouver's Power Play is suppose to be leathal, you would have thought that they would be u0p by 2-3 goals at this point and the Bruins PK is suppose to be a weak spot.
It's gonna be a 1 shot game from the looks of it ....
Ok, into the 3rd period, the RUST from the teams should be gone by now, the 3rd should be a very good one.
Bruins have a Golden Opportunity to STEAL one in Canada ....
Problem being I don't think they've had a shot in about 5 minutes, Canucks controlling play, Bruins need to sustain some pressure, at least get it into the Canucks zone.

Bruins lose it with 18 seconds left!!
Stunning ending. I was all but ready for OT
