Real storylines are things like the Marion Hossa story, a superstar ending up on different teams in the finals over and over, etc. I mean do you think anyone is like "OMG David Perron made it back to the finals on a different team, got to tune in to game 1!!!!!!!!!".

I think it's compelling in that the Blues haven't been to the finals since the 70's and the Bruins are original six and pretty popular team. That said the problem with all the days between games is that any momentum you have from a good game is lost after going multiple days between games this time of year where it's sunny and there's lots of things to do outside or around the house. To me the first round was must watch hockey but the finals have been more about watching when I can if I'm not busy doing something else. Wait, when's the next game again?
