NHL sets Stanley Cup Final schedule

The Stanley Cup Final schedule is set pending the results of the Western Conference Finals.

The Florida Panthers will face either the Dallas Stars or the Vegas Golden Knights. The two Conference Final winners will battle it out, as Lord Stanley’s silver is just four wins away.

The Panthers stunned the hockey world by eliminating the Boston Bruins, who set NHL records during a historic regular season only to get defeated in seven games in the first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. The Panthers used that momentum to take out the Toronto Maple Leafs in five games, advancing to the Eastern Conference Finals, where they swept the Carolina Hurricanes and advanced to their first Stanley Cup Final since 1996 in a rollercoaster of a Game 4 that saw Matthew Tkachuk score the go-ahead goal and seal the deal with just 4.3 seconds to play.

With the Stars holding on for dear life after another big win in Game 5, they look to advance to the Stanley Cup for the first time since 2020 when they lost to the Tampa Bay Lightning. The Golden Knights are just one win away from advancing to their second Stanley Cup Final since entering the league in 2017-18.

Here is the full schedule for the Stanley Cup Final pending results.
