The Stanley Cup Final is heading to at least a Game six, and Mitch Marner is still the name everyone's talking about when it comes to Conn Smythe contenders. The Toronto forward continues to lead the pack ahead of the Hurricanes' challengers, and with two or three games left to play, that hardware is very much still up for grabs.
Speaking of the Final, T.J. Oshie went on The Pat McAfee Show and made his pick clear with the series deadlocked at two games apiece between Carolina and Vegas. Oshie said all series long he's leaned one way, and now in a best-of-three finish, he's not backing off that stance. We won't spoil it, but the man has conviction.
And shifting over to the diamond, the Tampa Bay Rays are zeroing in on a draft prospect they've had their eye on since his high school days. This isn't a new name in their scouting room — this is a player they tried to sign years ago, and now they may finally get their shot. Sometimes front offices just wait for the right moment.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
