Blues vs Bruins In 2019 Stanley Cup Final

The St. Louis Blues and the Boston Bruins will face off for the 2019 Stanley Cup beginning on May 27th.

I am going to miss it.

In fact, for the first time in my life, I am going to miss the entire Stanley Cup final.

I am off to Europe, exploring Italy, Greece, Croatia and, for part of a day, Montenegro. It should be fun.

I really like the Blues, with coach Craig Berube arguably serving as their MVP and a really solid blue line in front of the hot shot rookie Jordan Bennington (I almost typed Craig Billington!) in net.

But I expect the Bruins to once again lift the Stanley Cup, thanks to the superior Tuukka Rask in net and rested and healthy line up through out.

I hope I am wrong. I hope St. Louis wins.

And when I get back I very much look forward to seeing all teams back on page one, building for next year and beyond through the draft, trades and free agency.
