“The spectators were not disappointed in hockey. The final series is the decoration of the whole season ”- Butsaev about the Stanley Cup final

Vityaz head coach Vyacheslav Butsaev shared his emotions after the 6th match of the Stanley Cup final series between the Tampa Bay Lightning and the Colorado Avalanche.

Colorado won the Stanley Cup after beating Tampa 4-2 in the series.

The strongest has won. The final episode is the highlight of the entire season. In the sixth match, we can say that we saw an equal game, we saw that Tampa spent a lot of physical strength in previous matches, they lacked freshness, although the team played with the support of its fans. Tampa wanted to continue this series, but the phenomenal game of Colorado did not allow it. The Avalanche deservedly won, they still looked more powerful than the opponent.

Probably, it is necessary to separately congratulate Valery Nichushkin, another Russian hockey player, whose name will be inscribed on the Stanley Cup.

What are your overall impressions of the final series?

– The series was interesting. The first match was held in a stubborn struggle, in the second we saw the complete dominance of Colorado, the third – the reverse side of the medal, Tampa already had the full advantage. There was a special moment in the fourth fight – after this result, it was already harder for Tampa to pull out this series, since the score became 3-1. But Tampa should be given credit, because they then had a great game in Colorado, when it seemed that everything was drawing to a close. The Avalanche wanted to finish this thriller, but they gave us one more match. The script for this episode is very interesting. I think that the audience was not disappointed in this hockey, – RB Sport quotes Butsaev.

For “Colorado” this Cup was the third in history.
