Re: NHL 2017.1: We turn over a new Leaf and still find a Penguin
Canada puts a beat down on South Korea, 10-0. They're now -17 after two games, though they have played two of the three strongest teams in the group, so they should fare a little better from here on out. Still, it looks like they since they went to the two group format in 2012, the worst differential was -26, so they really need to pick their game up.

So. You're an executive for NBC, and you're in the board room for a Monday morning meeting of the minds, and the Stanley Cup Playoffs come up. You've got 2 teams (Tampa and LV) that have moved on, with Winnipeg and Washington possibly moving on tonight...
They've gotta hope LV moves on to the final, don't they? That, or the Pens making the comeback (puke).
I think a Tampa/Winnipeg (or Nashville) final would yield the best hockey, and probably be a fantastic final, but NBC probably wouldn't like that from a ratings perspective.
Then again, Gary would be smug as hell with a Tampa/Nashville final.

Las Vegas-Washington might generate some interest. Expansion team winning Cup in first year vs long suffering Caps finally bringing home the cup.
