Because it's the Cup

Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals is tonight between the Kings and Devils. The Kings came into the Playoffs as the #8-seed in the Western Conference. They stunned the world by going a dominant 12-2 through the Playoffs. They eliminated the Canucks in five games to start out. After that, they swept the Blues. In the Western Conference Finals, they knocked out the Coyotes in five games. The Devils have had a tough road to the Stanley Cup. They had to beat the Panthers, Flyers, and Rangers to get to where they are now and take the picture next to the Prince of Wales Trophy. Zach Parise has been great this Playoff season. The goalies in this series are two of the best in the league in Jonathan Quick and Martin Brodeur. The captains for both teams in Dustin Brown and Zach Parise are American. Game 1 will be a great game, but I have to go with New Jersey at home. The Rock will be rocking tonight when both these teams battle it out for Game 1.
