 Anaheim (dark colour) take a 2-0 lead to Ottawa |
The Anaheim Ducks beat the Ottawa Senators 1-0 on Wednesday to take a 2-0 lead in the Stanley Cup final. Samuel Pahlsson scored with less than six minutes left to give the Ducks the advantage in the best-of-seven series.
Only once in NHL history has a team won the first two games at home and failed claim the Stanley Cup.
Games three and four move from California to Canada, and Ottawa coach Bryan Murray said: "We just have to take advantage of home ice."
