from Ian Mendes of Sportsnet,
So as I sit here in the terminal waiting to board my flight to Windsor (sounds glamorous, doesn’t it?), here are my five notable things to look for in this year’s Stanley Cup Finals.
The Setting:
This series will be a showcase of the greatest skill and talent the game has to offer. But instead of watching this marvelous display of hockey artistry from the luxury of a modern facility, we will be confined to Joe Louis and Mellon Arena. This is like watching a Broadway performance of Les Miserables from a dinner theatre at your local Denny’s. It just doesn’t seem right.
Both Mellon and the Joe have more history between the two of them then every other rink in the nhl, with the exceptions of maybe Rexall and Nassau…
Personally, I think that adds to the series, not subtracts from it.
The author probably just wants his luxury suite press box he gets everywhere else…
