StevieY9802 6 Report post Posted May 13, 2008 In the past I know they've had two sets of schedules depending on when series ended. Like if Team A wins in game 6 the series starts this day and if Team B take it to 7 it starts this other day. So if both series are done by Sunday I could see it starting Thursday but no later than Friday of next week. If June 9th is the last possible day for it to end the first game would have to be 2 weeks before that meaning the 26th or 27th of May and I just don't think the NHL would want 8-9 days in between. But we'll see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Theres the answer if they both swept. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I think regardless they will want at least game on Saturday on NBC, so Tue, Thur, Sat, schedule is what I expect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As for NBC I don't think they will start covering until game 3, if they do it like they have in the past. Edited May 14, 2008 by StevieY9802 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ifonlyicouldskate 11 Report post Posted May 14, 2008 I just hope there is no game on the 31st as I have a wedding to go to.... If thats a game day, I'm just gonna die. I also gave my best friend wife, strict orders not to give birth on a game day. She just going to have to hold that baby in until an off day! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If it ends in 5 then there won't be one on the 31st but I'm 99% sure there will be one on the 31st if it goes past that. Honestly even if both teams don't sweep there will still be one on the 31st. They've always gone Tuesday/Thursday/Saturday as long as I can remember. I feel for you though. Like I said before as long as game 7, if there is one, isn't the 9th I'm happy.

I guess it looks the second scenario since we lost tonight. I can't see either of these series going six games. Is this from a league source or are you just guessing?

Is this from a league source or are you just guessing? If it goes as to the schedule above I'm hoping for a thursday start as I am supposed to be going up north friday through monday. I guess going on a yearly fishing trip up north is not as important as going to game 1 of the SCF. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sixer 37 Report post Posted May 15, 2008 (edited) Mickey said on Mike in the Morning that they would be starting next Thursday. So is the schedule posted above for the cup finals starting thursday accurate? It would be great if game 5 was on a Saturday, because I figure we'll take the Pens in five and then have one big party!

sixer 37 Report post Posted May 18, 2008 I wonder if the Pens win today and when we win tomorrow night if the Cup will still start next Thursday? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
