Pittsburgh takes on Carolina in Eastern Conference Finals
The NHL’s Eastern Conference Finals are set after two game 7’s this week which saw the Pittsburgh Penguins and Carolina Panthers both prevail on the road to advance. After Pittsburgh’s win as Washington, the Penguins appear to be the team to beat in this series, and Penguins apparel is flying off the shelves. However Carolina jumped out to a quick 3-1 series lead on the #1 seeded Boston Bruins, and the Hurricanes should not be overlooked. It always seems that Carolina Hurricanes hats & merchandise is a little slower in sales since they are not in such a hockey-crazed town as Pittsburgh, but online stores are reporting nice traffic gains and sales increases.
Pro Hockey Fans has released their Eastern Conference Finals preview and makes their pick for who will play for the Stanley Cup in 2009. Will it be the Penguins or the Hurricanes? Find out!
