Edmonton Wins the West

The last time Edmonton won the Stanley Cup was 1990 and that was the fifth time they had done so in seven seasons.  The years with Gretzky, Messier, Kurri and others have long since been gone though and so was Edmonton’s prominence until now.  Last night Edmonton became the first eight-seed ever to make the [...]
