Colorado, which includes Valery Nichushkin, won the series with an aggregate score of 4-0 and reached the final, where it will play with the winner of the Rangers-Tampa Bay pairing.
Thus, teams with Russian players will play the Stanley Cup final. Goaltender Andrey Vasilevsky, defenseman Mikhail Sergachev and forward Nikita Kucherov play for Tampa. For Rangers – goalkeepers Igor Shesterkin and Alexander Georgiev, as well as striker Artemy Panarin. Of the four semi-finalists, Edmonton was the only team for which Russian hockey players do not play.
