Blackhawks Clinch Stanley Cup Playoffs

With a last-minute rally in game 6, the Chicago Blackhawks skated away Stanley Cup champions Monday night. Bryan Bickell and Dave Bolland scored 17 seconds apart in the final minutes of the game, leading the team to a 3-2 win over the Boston Bruins. “I still can’t believe that finish. Oh my God, we never quit,” Blackhawks goalie Corey Crawford told “USA Today.” “I never lost confidence. No one in our room ever did.” The team’s amazing sportsmanship made for an exciting, nail-biting conclusion to a season that almost didn’t happen at all because of player lockouts and stalled contract talks. That’s all in the past, though, as the Blackhawks earned their second Stanley Cup trophy in four seasons.
