Written by The Go-To-Man Mattie T. on May 23, 2010
After a stunning 4-game sweep over the top-seeded San Jose Sharks, the Chicago Blackhawks are now just four wins away from claiming their first Stanley Cup title since 1961.
It was another come-from-behind win for the Hawks, as Dustin Byfuglien scored his 3rd go-ahead goal of the series with 14:05 left in the third period.
The game wasn’t decided though until Kris Versteeg’s empty-net goal with 42 seconds remaining, which sent off a wild red-towel waving celebration inside of the United Center, as Chicago clinched their first Stanley Cup Finals berth in 18 years.
The Blackhawks will now have homeice advantage for the Stanley Cup Finals, as they await the winner of the Philadelphia Flyers/Montreal Canadiaens series.
Philadelphia holds a 3-1 series lead & can close it out Monday evening in Game 5, which will begin at 6:00 PM cst.
