With Dallas' win forcing the aforementioned Game 5 on Saturday night at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, we now know the potential start date for the 2023 Stanley Cup Final, thanks to Daily Faceoff's Frank Seravalli.
If Golden Knights wins the series on Saturday night in front of the home crowd, then the Stanley Cup Final will begin on Wednesday, May 31st. Game 1 would be in Vegas against the Eastern Conference champions, the Florida Panthers.
If the Dallas Stars win Game 5 and force a Game 6 back in the 'Lone Star State' on Monday night, then the 2023 Stanley Cup Final won't begin until Saturday, June 3rd.
