The final act of the 2014-15 NHL season begins this evening at Amalie Arena, the final seven games of an epic which will lead to the coronation of a new Stanley Cup Champion to reign over this league. Seven games at most will lead to Commissioner Gary Bettman bellowing for a team captain to come get his Stanley Cup.
The Tampa Bay Lightning and Chicago Blackhawks go back to what they're employed to do - play hockey - tonight after Tuesday's media-day and the post-Conference Finals games of late last week. While both clubs may very well be rested, there's no reason to think they're relaxed.
