Happy Sunday, PPP!
Tonight could, potentially, be the last game of this NHL season. We’ve seen blowouts for both sides this series—will we get the Game 3 Predators, or the Game 5 Penguins? Some hellish combination of the two? Personally, I’m just waiting for this series to be over so we can move on to the real hockey news of the moment: dissecting Auston Matthews’ offseason fashion choices. I heard he wore a bowler hat recently!
Here are some links to keep you occupied before tonight’s game:
