Lightning Round: Edmonton likely to host Stanley Cup Final

In further evidence of hell freezing over, the Stanley Cup Final will likely be held in Edmonton according to a report yesterday from Bob McKenzie.

With Edmonton and Toronto being chosen as the two NHL Hub cities, the question most often asked now is, which of the two will play host to the Stanley Cup final and Conference finals?

The answer, apparently, is Edmonton.— Bob McKenzie (@TSNBobMcKenzie) July 2, 2020

Uncle Bob later walked this back later in the day just slightly saying that the decision isn’t final so I would interpret this as, unless something major changes between now and the end of September, expect Edmonton to host the Cup Final.
