Watch live Canucks vs. Bruins game 7 online, Wednesday, Jun. 15, 2011. Even if you’re Marchand, a 23-year-old rookie, a 5-foot-9 ball of energy for the Boston Bruins.

“Every day,” Marchand said. Wednesday in Vancouver. Marchand is a big reason the Bruins have this opportunity. He was at his best – and the Canucks might say, worst – Monday night in Game 6 with the Bruins facing elimination on home ice at the TD Garden.

That also sparked a flurry of four goals in 4:14, a Cup final record. The Bruins went on to win 5-2.

“The shot he took was an extremely accurate and hard shot from an off wing, and that’s the caliber of a Brad Marchand shot,” Bruins coach Claude Julien said. Well, maybe as a Bruins coach. In one sequence at the end of Game 4, he clotheslined defenseman Christian Ehrhoff(notes) in the corner. He submarined winger Daniel Sedin(notes), sending him flying into the end boards. He dropped the gloves as defenseman Keith Ballard(notes) came after him. Sedin chose to take the abuse.

Sedin ended up screaming at a referee, who made a call all right – two minutes roughing and a 10-minute misconduct for Marchand and a 10-minute misconduct for Sedin.

Sedin said. I would rather have a kid like that than a kid that plays with no emotion. It’s a big part of his game, and he’s learning.”

It’s what makes Marchand who he is. A third-round draft pick in 2006, he had zero goals and one assist in 20 games for the Bruins last season. But he had enough spunk to tell Julien he would score 20 goals for the Bruins this season.

Marchand made the team, but he was pegged as a fourth-line guy. Marchand finished with 21 goals, 41 points and a plus-25 rating. (Not sure if he wiped his hands afterward.)

One game left. The Bruins need a hero. Marc Savard(notes) is out with a concussion. So is Nathan Horton(notes), who scored the Game 7 winners in the first and third rounds. The Bruins have scored in buckets and won all three games at home in this series, but they’ve struggled to score and lost all three games on the road – Marchand included. Four points in Boston, zero in Vancouver.

“It’s obviously a tough grind on the mind and body,” Marchand said. You’ve got all summer to recover.” Watch live Canucks vs. Bruins game 7 online.

The Boston Bruins put Roberto Luongo(notes) and the Stanley Cup back on the shelf.

After another home scoring spree against Vancouver’s wildly inconsistent goalie Monday night, the Bruins are making one last trip west for the big finish to these dramatic Stanley Cup finals.

Brad Marchand(notes), Milan Lucic(notes) and Andrew Ference(notes) scored in the first 8:35 to chase Luongo from his second straight game in Boston, and the Bruins emphatically evened the finals with a 5-2 victory in Game 6, sending the series to a decisive Game 7 in Vancouver on Wednesday night.

For the sixth time in the last 10 seasons, the finals have been stretched to their limit. The home team hasn’t lost in this series, with Vancouver winning three one-goal games and Boston posting three blowout victories. Watch Full Game 6 Replay..

Watch Game 6 Canucks vs. Bruins Live Online

Watch live Canucks vs. Bruins game 6 online, Monday, Jun. 13, 2011. The Vancouver Canucks are just one win away from their first-ever Stanley Cup and with a victory over the Boston Bruins in Game 6 of the 2011 Stanley Cup Finals Monday, they can do just that. If the Canucks win Monday, they will have to skate with the Cup inside TD Garden away from their fans, but there will be at least two Vancouver supporters in attendance Monday as Force and Sully - The Green Men - will make a return trip to Boston for Monday's game.

Yes indeed, the Stanley Cup Final shifts back to TD Garden for Game 6 after Vancouver’s pulsating 1-0 win against the Boston Bruins at Rogers Arena on Friday night. Team Scope:

“Stats are for GMs and player agents; what matters is a win,” Canucks defenseman Kevin Bieksa said. Nobody could care about stats.

The Boston goaltender has been so good in the Stanley Cup Playoffs, there’s a good chance he’ll win the Conn Smythe Trophy even if the Bruins lose this series. Watch live Canucks vs. Bruins game 6.

Game 6 is Monday night in Boston, and the Stanley Cup will be there.

The Canucks have scored just six goals in five Stanley Cup finals games against brilliant Boston goalie Tim Thomas(notes), yet they’re one victory away from winning it all.

Neither team found an offensive flow in a Game 5 nail-biter, but Luongo kept Vancouver in it until Lapierre and defenseman Kevin Bieksa(notes) teamed up on a goal that set off a crazy celebration among tens of thousands of fans thronging downtown Vancouver.

Luongo was pulled from Game 4, but coach Alain Vigneault stuck with him for Game 5. The Olympic champion was only occasionally spectacular, but he still narrowly outplayed Thomas, who has received just two goals of support from his teammates in three games in Vancouver.

Thomas made 24 saves in Game 5, but lost his shutout streak of 110 minutes, 42 seconds dating to Game 3. With injured forwardNathan Horton’s(notes) jersey hanging in the visitors’ locker room, the Bruins’ power play regressed to its previous postseason struggles, going 0 for 4.

After two scoreless periods of stellar goaltending in which Boston went scoreless on four power plays, the Canucks finally connected with a supremely heady play by the veteran Bieksa, who used Thomas’ aggressive style against him.

Bieksa deliberately put a long shot wide of the goal, and when Thomas instinctively moved to his glove side to play it, the puck ricocheted off the back boards straight to Lapierre, who put it behind Thomas for just his second goal of the postseason.

Lapierre was a late-season acquisition who largely serves as an agitator for the Canucks, not a scorer. He’s never managed more than 15 goals in a season, and he had just six this season while playing for Montreal, Anaheim and Vancouver.

In the last 21 times the finals were even going to Game 5, the winner went on to claim the Cup 15 times—yet Colorado (2001), Tampa Bay (2004) and Pittsburgh (2009) all overcame Game 5 losses to win it in the past decade.

Luongo receives more criticism than almost any goalie with his level of accomplishment at hockey’s most elite levels, yet he has shown resilience throughout the postseason. He came back from a one-game benching in the first round against Chicago with a 2-1 victory in Game 7, and Vigneault unhesitatingly stuck by Luongo in the finals, ignoring widespread trashing of his $10 million goalie after Boston’s 8-1 and 4-0 home wins.

The Canucks were grateful to return to Rogers Arena, where they eked out two one-goal wins to open the series on late goals by Raffi Torres(notes) and Alex Burrows. Vancouver seemed to be in control when the club left Canada last weekend—but then the Bruins seized charge of the series with two inspired performances after Vancouver defenseman Aaron Rome’s(notes) late hit knocked Horton out for the series with a concussion early in Game 3.

Boston is still having tremendous defensive success in the finals, holding 2010 league MVP Henrik Sedin(notes) without a point and limiting NHL scoring champion Daniel Sedin(notes) to one goal. Vancouver’s power play is 1 for 25 in the finals—yet the Bruins just haven’t scored timely road goals to back up Thomas, who allowed one goal in two games in Boston.

Boston had three early power plays in Game 5 and controlled long stretches of play, but couldn’t crack Luongo. Chris Kelly(notes) hit Luongo’s crossbar with an early shot, and Luongo made a stunning point-blank save on Patrice Bergeron’s(notes) rebound shot from the slot during Boston’s third power play.
