What's with the long wait for the beginning of the Stanley Cub ??
What gives ??
do they really need to spread these series that far apart ?

Agree Tony...this delay breaks a teams rhythm and can be detrimental to the balance of a winning mentality.

Hockey turn arounds have been twice as less time as the NBA and it’s 5x more grueling. I honestly wish baseball would keep the 1 game playoff but every series after that should be 7 games not that 5 game bullshit

Seems weird considering hockey is the greatest sport known to man, I expect something like this in the NBA but not the NHL.

Really annoying. If you're series goes long that's your punishment for not finishing the job

Basketball is a summer game. There is some reason I forget now that they play during the winter

I'm going to search it up. I think they used to play during the summer.
You play basketball outside in the winter?

What I wonder is why they play football during the winter. It's a summer sport.

maybe its because of the long weekend? That is the only thing that makes sense. Don't remember it taking this long to get started before.

Just using lakerlogic really. If basketball is a summer sport then football surely must be as well.

Dumb to compete with the NBA game. Should of been tonight or tomorrow at worst.
