The Avalanche and the Lightning face off in the final series of this year’s postseason. Colorado made quick work of Edmonton in the Western Conference Final, sweeping the Oilers to advance to their first final since 2001. Led by Nathan MacKinnon and Cale Makar, the club is going for their third Stanley Cup in franchise history.

Opposing them is Tampa Bay, who are the champions from 2020 and 2021. The Lightning defeated the Rangers in six games during their Eastern Conference Final series. In addition to their two wins from the last couple of seasons, the franchise won the Cup in 2004, meaning that a win this year would give the club its fourth. It also would mark the first time since the Islanders in the early ’80s that a team successfully completed a three-peat. 

Will the Lightning extend their dynasty by winning the third-straight title? Or will the Avalanche finally get that Cup that this core group has been eyeing?
