In Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final, Colorado Avelanche endured the return of Tampa Bay Lightning with a winning goal in overtime. If the rest of the series is like Game 1, we can have a fun round of the championship.

Wednesday was Colorado’s fourth win in Game 1 this postseason, the ninth team in the history of the Stanley Cup playoffs to achieve the feat, according to ESPN statistics and information. All the previous eight continued to win the championship. Avalanche have a record of 21-11 when they lead 1-0 in a series of the top seven.
After the loss, Tampa Bay coach John Cooper did not hold back his opinion of the game.
“The right team won the game … To beat such a team, we have to have a better team,” Cooper said.
If Lightning falls into hole 0-2 for the second consecutive series, this could be the beginning of the end for them. Only five teams saw this series deficit in both the semifinals / finals of the conference and the Cup final in the same postseason, and none after the Blackhawks in 1965. None of these five teams won the Stanley Cup.
The Ball Arena was noisy all night on Wednesday, and Saturday was no different for Game 2. What’s next for Saturday’s action?
Here’s a look at the best scenes from Game 2 of the Stanley Cup.
Dear darling …
At least one bachelorette party is in the house for Game 2 … and they’re hoping to win.
Fascinated by the planning or lack thereof to have a bachelorette party in match 2 of the Stanley Cup final. In any case, quite great. pic.twitter.com/A1rMFPxEiZ

The fandom is official
Jay, a fan who attends Game 2, is clearly in support of Avalanche – just look at his personalized blazer.
This is Jay. It is quite possible that he is the best dressed man in Game 2 of the #StanleyCup final with this @Avalanche formal attire. pic.twitter.com/XUx7Fu2MA9
