I am aware of the possibility of outplaying an opponent and losing (see Sioux vs. Michigan) but that didn't apply to this series. The better team got the breaks and won this series, plain and simple. Its not like it was a one-and-done format...so you're telling me Boston got all the breaks for 4 straight games against Pittsburgh? The Pens were out-skated, out-hustled, out-muscled, and out-scored for 4 games...maybe you should have an open mind about what happened.
