Antti Niemi's days of driving a Zamboni are long gone. Instead of cleaning the ice as he once did in his native Finland to make a few extra bucks, he's clearing away pucks and hoping to help the Chicago Blackhawks hoist the Stanley Cup. Niemi made 14 of his 32 saves in the third period and Chicago beat the Philadelphia Flyers 2-1 Monday night to take a 2-0 series lead. Game 3 is Wednesday night and Game 4 is Friday, both in Philadelphia. This was a different game from the opener when Niemi let in five goals in the Blackhawks' 6-5 win. "I think our 'D' played maybe a little bit better in front of the net in blocking shots and letting me see the puck," Niemi said. "But it's always a little bit about the luck, too, how you see the puck, and how it bounces." http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/recap?gameId=300531004
