Bears have a cup final date with the defending champs

The Continental cup final matchup was finalized when Moscow defeated Riga to setup a date with the Seattle Bears who defeated the Vancouver Wolves in 5 games.  The series looks like it will be a great one as its the defending champs vs the bears who have no reached the final 3 times in the past 4 seasons.   Both teams feature goaltenders who can win the game on their own.    Bears’s Rayz Funk leads Raymond Bernard in save percentage by a miniscule .004 margin while the both earned 2 shutouts each on route to the final.   That save percentage was even smaller during the regular season with Funk ahead of Bernard by just .001.  The battle in net may play a large role in determining this year's winner.

 

In the skater category both teams have a player tied for the playoff scoring title.  Bears deadline acquisition   Aleksander Rodriguez has been a huge addition to the bear squad as he is currently tied with Mat Tocco for the point lead.  Rodriguez has also been scoring some clutch goals as he leads the playoffs in game winners with 3.    A win by the bears should give Blake Campbell the David Knight Trophy as 3 wins in 4 seasons to go along with the key acquisition of Rodriguez should cement Blake’s status as the best GM this season.  I predict the Bears will win the cup in 7 games.
