As a New England wolf pack fan myself, it’s tough to be impressed by their opponent, but their opponent this time is Winnipeg, the fact the they have been to the finals 4 seasons in a row is very impressive. Just making to the finals for one season is impressive but 4 times In a row is unbelievable. It was definitely one heck of a rematch.

I’m still pretty new to this league as I just joined last season so im not too familiar with their previous match up, but I’ll give it a go. Last time they face off against each other in the finals, Winnipeg started off very strong but seemed to fizzle out and lose momentum, as long as the can maintain that constant pressure they should be able to come out on top (as they did)

Both teams played pretty evenly across the whole playoffs with the exception of the wolf packs round 3 match up vs the forge who went to game 7, while Winnipeg only went to game 5 during the 3rd round. So my final answer for who had the more impressive punch to the finals? Winnipeg. They didn’t have a single playoff game go to a game 6.

Looks like Winnipeg won season 72! With how much desire to win they have had for the past few seasons, it’s no surprise that they clenched the final this season, especially with how dominant they played this off season (regular season as well). The only way things could have ended differently for New England would have been for them to maintain possession of the puck. They dominated the first game of the series and even the second game was close, but followed by 2 shutouts is rough. During those 2 games alone the Wolfpack had half as many shots on goal as Winnipeg did. It’s hard to win games with out having possession of the puck.
