The HHG: NHL Stanley Cup Finals 2011

Another Canadian team makes the trip to the Finals... but can Vancouver finally break a 17-year winless streak for Canadian teams?

The Heart hopes the Canucks win the Cup. Besides wanting Canada to celebrate one after what feels like an eternity, Vancouver could finally live up to their potential.

The Head thinks Vancouver has the best weapons to win. Boston seems a little inconsistent and could still make critical mistakes at key moments. The Canucks have been solid from the start of the season, and despite a scare in the first round with Chicago, Vancouver has been the clear favorite in the Western Conference.

The Gut feels Boston just might spoil the party for Canada. Tim Thomas could just as easily turn it on and become invincible, just like Roberto Luongo could for Vancouver. However Boston has an air about them to eak out a win in Canada, which will bring them home ice advantage.
