The Chicago Blackhawks defeated the Anaheim Ducks 5-3 to advance to the Stanley Cup Final on Saturday evening, and Jonathan Toews' pair of goals paved Chicago's way:
The NHL had posted his on May 28th, but this still holds true, and all you have to do is give the Lightning home-ice advantage (thanks to a 108-point finish to Chicago's 102) to figure out where the games will take place:

Ducks knocked out in a game 7 at home for the 3rd straight year.

love how toews created a new tradition of getting the team to gather around (but not touch) the conference trophy for a photo.

I would have rather seen the Ducks in the final.
Not because I like ‘em, Gods no. Because now we’re just waiting for the Chicago press to start on about that nonsensical “dynasty” talk again. With that, I hope the Lightning beat them handily. It’s a cup ring for Stevie, even though he’s on the wrong team this time around.
