According to Sean of GoingFiveHole, if both the Red Wings and Penguins finish off their opponents quickly, it’s possible that the Stanley Cup Final could begin by next Tuesday.

The Pens’ blogger had all the possible scenarios. If true, this is encouraging news because the last thing the NHL needed was almost a near two week hiatus before the respective teams took center stage for Lord Stanley. There wouldn’t be any logical reason to make either club wait assuming the Stars and Flyers don’t make things interesting starting tonight at American Airlines Center in Big D.

So, the question is can either team down 0-3 bring back any credence to the magical ‘33′ formula? One can only hope.
