It’s Memorial Day in the USA, and nothing says a Monday holiday quite like a packed sports schedule. There is a ton of great action on tap today, but the very best may well be reserved for later in the evening, with Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final between the San Jose Sharks and Pittsburgh Penguins on the calendar. It’s something of an unexpected final, if truth be told, but it’s also one that fans of attacking hockey are sure to be delighted about. Both of these teams were in the top 5 in goals scored average during the regular season, so don’t be surprised if we see a few of these games turn into old-fashioned shootouts. It is the Penguins who come into the final as the slight nhl betting lines favorites, but as the regular season series between these two proves, there looks to be very little between them.
