    There are 5 teams are left with some new ones seeking to win their 1st Stanley Cup trophy. The Capitals and The Lightning will meet in the Eastern Conference Finals and The Knights are waiting for the winner between The Predators and The Jets in the Western Conference. These remaining teams have a combined 1 Stanley Cup trophy, only Tampa Bay won it in 2004.

    Here are the final four teams:
    East - Capitals vs. Lightning
    West - Knights vs. Jets

    Prediction: I got the Capitals and the Knights in the Finals. Ovechkin and the Caps get their 1st Stanley Cup.

    Looks more likely a "Sun Belt" showdown series in the Stanley Cup Finals. Vegas and Tampa are 1 win away from advancing.

    What a great series coming up. Either Ovechkin finally gets his first Stanley Cup or Vegas wins the Cup in their first year in existence.

    Should be one hell of a series.

    Damn, Game 1 (Knights-Capitals) is at the same time as Game 7 (Rockets-Warriors). I'll watch the replay of Game 1 later.

    I'm watching Stanley Cup game 1 until the Rockets start. I gotta say that intro segment was amazing. Las Vegas really knows how to put on a show..
    Hopefully Toyota Center can do something like that for NBA FInals!

    Lived in Maryland for 16 years and my allegiance slowly shifted from the Islanders to the Caps until 2005 when I went full District once they drafted Ovi. My wife and I met him shortly after the draft when he was signing autographs at the DC car show. I'm looking at that signature as I type this and wishing for the first time since we left that we were back in Maryland. I know they're going crazy up there. C-A-P-S, CAPS, CAPS, CAPS!!

    What a year. First the Stros now the Caps. Awesome feeling.

    Anyone catch the lady flashing the caps on live TV as they made their victory parade? Lol.
