One State. One Night. Two Cups?

Pennsylvania will be the center of the hockey universe tonight.

Just after 7:00, the puck will drop between the Hershey Bears and Manitoba Moose, in the Hershey Arena.

The Bears lead that series 3-1, and look to close out the Moose and win their 10th Calder Cup (and their second in the last three years).


An hour later, roughly 200 miles West on Rt. 76...the Wings and Pens will take to center ice for the drop of the puck in Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Finals.

The Wings lead the series 3-2...and obliterated the Pens in Detroit in Saturday night, a 5-0 drubbing.

And in a short 4-hour window (barring Overtime) both the NHL and AHL seasons could end.

What a season it's been...and what a long off-season it will be.
