The pandemic resulted in the league suspending the regular season on March 12, 2020, and then scheduling a special 24-team playoff format to be held in two neutral "hub cities" ( Edmonton and Toronto) that began on August 1. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the entire series was played behind closed doors at Rogers Place in Edmonton. The series began on September 19 and concluded on September 28. The Lightning had home-ice advantage in the series with the better regular season record. The Lightning won the best-of-seven series, four games to two, for their second championship in franchise history. This series was between the Eastern Conference champion Tampa Bay Lightning and the Western Conference champion Dallas Stars. The 2020 Stanley Cup Finals was the championship series of the National Hockey League's (NHL) 2019–20 season and the culmination of the 2020 Stanley Cup playoffs. ![]() (NBC/NBCSN) Mike Emrick, Eddie Olczyk, and Brian Boucher ![]()
