Stanley Cup Final Begins Tomorrow Night

Jim Rutherford, the current Penguins general manager and current Nashville coach, Peter Laviolette won a Stanley Cup together, each in the same role with the 2006 Carolina Hurricanes.

Now they or more precisely their teams clash for the title, the best of seven Cup Final beginning tomorrow night in Pittsburgh.

There were many references to the game during the Pirates/Mets telecast on Fox last night.

Since the Pittsburgh Pirates lost the 1927 World Series to a great New York Yankees team, the city of Pittsburgh is (13-3) in championship round action. The Pens are (4-1).

Only once before has a team from Tennessee played for a major North American sports crown, in it, the Tennessee Titans lost to the St. Louis Rams in the ’99 season Supe.
