Stanley Cup Playoffs: Canucks Close Out Sharks In 2 OT To Reach First Cup Final Since '94

At Vancouver, British Columbia:


Kevin Bieska scored the winning goal at 10:18 of the second overtime period while Robert Luongo stopped 54 of 56 shots as the Vancouver Canucks closed out their NHL Western Conference final with the San Jose Sharks in five games following their 3-2 home win on Tuesday night.  The Canucks will be playing in the Stanley Cup Finals for the third time in franchise history, having lost both their previous efforts (1982 in four straight games to the New York Islanders and 1994 in seven games to the New York Rangers).
