By Aaron Holm -
Good Morning Wilderness, and if your feeling somewhat like a doormat this morning I would suspect you are a fan of the Pittsburgh Penguins. Wow, the Boston Bruins just turned the Consol Energy over on its head. They beat up on the Penguins by a score of 6-1 and take a commanding 2-0 series lead back to Boston for game 3 on Wednesday.
Tonight the Chicago Blackhawks take their own 2-0 series lead to the West Coast as they take on the Los Angeles Kings. Tonight's game starts at 8 pm CST which should still allow you for ample sleep. I wouldn't count the Kings out quite yet, but they are going to need some serious love from the Staples Center.
