Saturday's Dump & Chase: Penguins Eaten By Bruins

No team has ever won a playoff series after scoring only two goals. It's the longest streak in NHL history, and barring some sort of miracle in the Finals, it'll continue for at least one more year. The Penguins will have a lot to think about this offseason. Something just isn't working for them. So after the Kings fail on the road again tonight, we'll have a Chicago-Boston Stanley Cup Final...hey, at least that means we're getting that much closer to training camp.
