(RESIST) 
Only four NHL teams in league history have come back from a three to zero game deficit to win the playoff series.
The 1942 Maple Leafs did so, defeating the Red Wings to win the Cup. This is the only "reverse sweep" to occur in the Stanley Final.
The 1975 NY Islanders dynasty did it in the Quarter-Final round against the Pittsburgh Penguins.
The 2010 Philadelphia Flyers came back from 3-0 to eliminate the Boston Bruins in the Semi-Finals.
The 2014 LA Kings usurped the San Jose Sharks in the Western Conference Final, They beat the Rangers in the final to capture their second Cup in three seasons. They won three game sevens and set a record for most wins facing elimination in a single season... They won seven.
Can the Dallas Stars become only the fourth team to accomplish the feat? I say not but, my prognostication is not great this playoff year. The Lightning and Hurricanes are golfing and the Panthers are in the Stanley Cup Final so, what do I know. I was correct predicting that the Bruins would succumb to the "President’s Trophy Curse" but, not until the second round. It's definitely an off year around the board.
Not that I like it but, Florida will win the Cup. The glass slipper seems to fit and it's definitely been their year, Just ask around Boston and Toronto.

If I were a coach, and I wanted to show my team an example of smart hockey, it would be the last 5 minutes or so of the #NYIslanders game today.
Way to go #Isles!
With work done, I am now waiting for my Chinese takeout, then headed home to catch the #nyislanders game.
We're tied up at 2 on the Island.
Both teams' Brocks have scored. (Nelson for the Isles, Boeser for the Canucks)
#NYislanders up 2-0 on the #Kraken after 1.
Boys are skating well tonight.
Bo Horvat's presser with the New York hockey press.
All this reminds me of the Trevor Linden trade. And Bo, like Trevor, is being a complete class act about it all.
Bruins for the win!

@hockey @spelled_with_a_k @metalegg @kdriley05 oh no! #nyislanders just tied it up. What happened to the #nhlbruins usual domination in the third?
