The men's professional ice hockey league ended its season last night; the Tampa Bay Lightning won the Stanley Cup on an evening when the ambient temperature outside St. Petersburg Times Forum was near 90. Inside the play was fast and furious, befitting what has been an excellent playoff year and a tremendous final series between two well-matched teams. That was pretty much it for Monday, though. Sure - laundry got done and I watched a documentary about the Panama Canal while dinner was cooking, but the game was certainly the focal point.
