Both teams get major boosts for Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals

It appears that both the Colorado Avalanche and the Tampa Bay Lightning will get a huge boost for game one of the Stanley Cup Finals on Wednesday night.

The Avalanche first announced that Darcy Kuemper is 100% and is expected to get the start in game one. He missed games two to four in the Western Conference Final against the Edmonton Oilers.

The Lightning made the biggest announcement this morning that their all-star centre Brayden Point will be playing game one. He has been out since game seven of the first round against the Toronto Maple Leafs.
