Congratulations to the Anaheim Ducks of Los Angeles of California of the United States of the NHL for winning the Stanley Cup on Wednesday night at the Pond. (I refuse to call it the Honda Cent-...damn nearly did it...stupid corporate sponsorships ruining tradition, but that's for another daily view). The Niedermayer brothers have struck gold with this team, Scott (the captain) for the fourth time in his career.The Ducks defeated the Senators 6-2, and took the series in 5 games. Travis Moen had two goals for the Ducks. Daniel Alfredsson scored both goals for Ottawa. Scott Niedermayer was awarded the Conn Smythe Trophy as the Finals MVP; he added an assist in game 5.
Anaheim was the more dominant team in this series and the playoffs, they showed the nation that by taking out the Ottawa Senators in five games to win their first Stanley Cup. It will be interesting to see if both of these teams can keep their core groups together and make another run at it again next season. I think at least one of these teams will have a very good chance.
