Taking a look at the 2016 Stanley Cup Final TV schedule for the series between the Pittsburgh Penguins and San Jose Sharks

The Stanley Cup Final is one of the wildest moments of the year in all of sports, not just in the NHL. Not only is the drama high with the cup on the line, but the playoffs leading to the Stanley Cup Final are always so hectic that there’s so much emotion tied into the final series. Battling for the cup in the 2016 Stanley Cup Final will be the Pittsburgh Penguins and San Jose Sharks.

Pittsburgh is a perpetual favorite to win the cup with all of the talent they have and seemingly perpetually have on their roster. Meanwhile, the Sharks have been the successful underdog all season and now look to use that to try and win the cup against the talented Penguins.

With that in mind, fans won’t want to miss a game. To make sure that happens, here’s a look at the 2016 Stanley Cup Final TV schedule:

Game 1 @ Pittsburgh — Monday, May 30 — 8 p.m. ET — NBC
Game 2 @ Pittsburgh — Wednesday, June 1 — 8 p.m. ET — NBCSN
