The Stanley Cup Final has not disappointed through four games. Game 1 was a thriller, as Vegas rallied from a 2-0 deficit to ultimately get the 5-4 win. Game 2 wasn’t far behind, as this time it was Carolina who overcame a 2-0 deficit to get the 4-3 win in OT. If that wasn’t good enough, we got a 2OT game next, as Vegas won Game 3, 5-4. On Tuesday night we got another thriller, with Carolina winning 5-3 to even the series at 2-2.

What a series this has been so far, and we’re far from done.
