Final Score: Vancouver 1, Boston 0

Vancouver, BC (Sports Network) – Raffi Torres scored with just 18.5 seconds remaining in the third period Wednesday to lift the Vancouver Canucks to a 1-0 victory over the Boston Bruins in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals. Starved for a championship and thirsty for some light at the back of the net, the Canucks struck first in this best-of-seven series after Ryan Kesler stripped defenseman Johnny Boychuk near the blue line to start a tic-tac-toe play. Kesler fired the puck across the ice to Jannik Hansen above the right circle, and Hansen squeezed a puck into the slot for Torres, who got behind a defender to beat Tim Thomas into the left side of the net. Thomas, who had been so good through 59 minutes and 41 seconds, almost got his right skate down in time to stop the shot. Instead, his final line read 33 saves on 34 shots. At the other end, Roberto Luongo shut the Bruins out. The Canuck netminder made 36 saves, including 17 in an active first period and 10 in the third to keep the door closed. Until the goal, the story of the Game 1 had been about missed chances: The teams combined to go 0-for-12 on the power play in the first two periods, having better luck finding each other after the whistle than finding the back of the net. Game 2 is Saturday in Vancouver, and both teams are looking to snap championship droughts. Vancouver, although it has a Stanley Park, had never won the Stanley Cup. The Canucks are playing in the Finals for the third time, and for the first time since 1994 when they were beaten by the New York Rangers in seven games. The Bruins have won five Stanley Cups, but none since 1972. They are 0-5 in the Finals since then, the last loss coming to Edmonton in 1990.
