SEATTLE — For the first time in more than 100 years, games contested in the quest for the Stanley Cup will be returning to Seattle.
The series is tied 1-1 after Seattle earned an unexpected split in Denver against the defending Stanley Cup champions. Seattle took a 3-1 win in Game 1 and had an early two-goal lead in Game 2 before watching the Avalanche rally for a 3-2 victory to knot the series.Those who do fill Seattle's home building on Saturday night will be getting rewarded with the next chapter in the city's hockey history.
"It can sound corny sometimes when you talk about the fans, but really think about the journey they've been on," Kraken CEO Tod Leiweke said."They responded to billboards and some press releases and signed up. They've been with us the whole way. They didn't know that we were gonna end up developing the arena the way we did. They didn't know the team name. They didn't know the players. They didn't know the GM. They didn't know the coach.
If New Jersey is to get back into the series, the fast, free-flowing style of play that carried the Devils needs to return. New Jersey won't be uncomfortable in the Garden, either. The Devils had the second-best road record in the Eastern Conference this season and went 1-0-1 at MSG in the regular season.There's no sense of panic in the Lightning after splitting the first two games of their matchup against the Maple Leafs.
"It's a seven-game series. It's not a one-game, one and done," Cooper said after the team's 7-2 loss in Game 2."We'll be alright."
