For hockey fans, now is the best time of the entire year: the NHL Playoffs. The quest for the 2025 Stanley Cup has officially begun, and this year appears to be a wide-open race to the finish line.
The reigning-champion Panthers will be looking to become the first team to repeat since the Sunshine State-rival Lightning won it all in 2020 and 2021. The Oilers, who just fell short in last year's finals, are back in the race, hoping to return glory to Canada once and for all.
This could be one of the most competitive fields in NHL postseason history, and there's never been a better time to go to some playoff games. Especially when it's a rematch of last year's series.
