Only one more sleep until Game 1 of the 2023 Stanley Cup Final, which is slated for Saturday in Las Vegas at 8 p.m. ET.
It will open the first-ever Final televised on TNT, with the contest also carried on TBS and truTV in the U.S. as well as on Sportsnet, CBC and TVA Sports in Canada.
Kelly McCrimmon and Bill Zito, who had a hand in acquiring nearly all players set to compete in the Final, look to capture a Cup after winning championships as general managers in the WHL and AHL, respectively.
Paul Maurice and Bruce Cassidy will make the second Final appearance of their NHL head coaching career after first reaching the championship series in 2002 and 2019, respectively.
