Monday, July 27, marked the first day that Eastern and Western Conference playoff teams will practice inside their bubbles in Toronto and Edmonton.
To celebrate, the NHL released an intro or opening credits (think Full House’s opener) for The Stanley Cup Qualifiers. One of the stars of the show is Washington Capitals captain Alex Ovechkin.

This is great though I’m not sure Ryan Reaves is “starring.” He’s kind of like The Gibbler; he makes a quick appearance and then is not seen for the rest of the episode.
The intro builds off the NHL’s awesome first commercial promoting the 2020 playoffs, entitled The Greatest Show.
