Blues vs Bruins NHL Live Stream Reddit for Game 1 of Stanley Cup Finals

The St. Louis Blues will be in Boston on Monday for Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals. It will be a crucial game to set the tone for the series, as the Game 1 winner has gone on to win the Stanley Cup 77.2 percent of the time since the 7-game format was adopted in 1939.

Puck drop is scheduled for 8:00 p.m. ET from TD Garden and will be televised on NBC. The game can also be viewed on the NHL streams subreddit.

The Bruins are coming off a series sweep of the Carolina Hurricanes, while the Blues are coming off of a 4-2 series victory over the San Jose Sharks to propel them to the finals.

The Bruins have had significantly more time to rest and prepare for the Finals, as they last played on May 16th. It will be interesting to see whether that manifests as some early rust for Boston or if, instead, the Bruins take advantage of the extra time off and come out looking fresh in Game 1.

The underdog Blues hope to maintain the momentum they established during a gutsy series victory in the Western Conference Finals, one that saw them overcome a very controversial call that lost them Game 3 against the Sharks. They will have their work cut out for them, though, as the Bruins have looked increasingly dominant as the playoffs have gone on.

The Bruins will be hoping for a repeat of the last time they faced the Blues in the Stanley Cup Finals, when Bobby Orr's famous game-winner and subsequent dive across the ice gave the Bruins a memorable series sweep.
