The Stanley Cup will be presented in Sunrise, Florida, on Monday evening to the winner, the home team Florida Panthers, or the visiting Edmonton Oilers. Because of the series' current parity, a few crucial requirements will be satisfied, determining whether the Cup remains in South Florida or returns to Canada for the first time since 1993.
In order to improve their teams in preparation for lengthy playoff runs, Florida and Edmonton made a few deals before this year's deadline; as of right now, one team or the other has taken decisions that will have paid off in the end.
This season has been enjoyable regardless of what happens in game 7, and this week should be equally busy with the NHL Awards on June 27 and the NHL Draft on June 28 and 29. There will probably also be a parade and celebration in the city of the winning teams.
