Stanley Cup Finals Game 1 To Begin At 8:22 P.M. ET

In case you’re wondering, the puck will drop on Game 1 at approximately 8:22 p.m. That’s plenty of time for NBC and CBC to get their pregame stuff out of the way, and it’s enough time for you to prepare another drink or something.

The teams will take the ice at 8:18 p.m., the national anthem will play at 8:20, and we’ll be watching hockey two minutes later.

Dan O’Halloran and Brad Watson are the officials this evening. The linesmen are Derek Amell and Jonny Murray.
