Devils Win!

The Devils won their third Stanley Cup last night in typical Devils style — opportunistic scoring and smothering defense. Stylistically, it was an odd series: all games won by the home team, first two games won by the Devils their way, next two games won by the Ducks their way (in overtime), next two games split with uncharacteristicly high scores, and the final won by the Devils their way again. I was pulling for the Ducks, but my hat's off for the Devils. Their style may not be pretty, but it has proven effective with Stanley Cups in '95, '00 and '03.
