The Florida Panthers are the higher seed; thus, they hold the advantage to open and close the Stanley Cup Final, should it go seven games. Conversely, home-ice advantage has been anything less than a convenience for the home team in recent seasons. There were 16 road wins in the second round of the NHL playoffs. Last season, all playoff teams made history by winning games as visitors in their white sweaters.

Regardless, we expect the atmosphere in Sunrise, Florida, to be electric as the Panthers look to avenge last season’s Stanley Cup Final loss to Las Vegas. Matthew Tkachuk, the older brother to Brady, is a marquee player to watch for in the series. Thus, our rooting interests lie in South Florida. However, I remain paranoid that Matthew’s potential Cup raise will cause turmoil for the Ottawa Senators and their captain.

Standing in Florida’s way are the Edmonton Oilers, a team with destiny vibes that is returning to the Stanley Cup Final for the first time since 2006. It’s always special for a Canadian team to play for the ultimate prize in Canada’s sport, but we’re so envious that it is impossible to back Connor McDavid and company.

Nevertheless, the battle of a storied Canadian NHL franchise with five Stanley Cups against a non-conventional U.S. hockey market team chasing its first title will be must-see television
