Lightning/Rangers face scheduling conflict at MSG if the series goes 7 games
The Tampa Bay Lightning cut the Rangers' series lead in half with a gutsy 3-2 win on Sunday afternoon and are now down just 2-1 in the series heading into Game 4 on Tuesday. If the Bolts can pick up the win on Tuesday, it will guarantee that the series will go at least 6 games, and possibly 7.
If the series does go 7 games, it will cause a bit of a conundrum at Madison Square Garden, as Game 7 would be scheduled to take place on June 14th, which happens to be the same day that Justin Bieber is expected to form at the same venue.
June 14th falls on a Tuesday, so a daytime game is not exactly in the cards for the Rangers. I'd imagine that since the Rangers have a contract with the venue, they'll take precedence over a on-night show, so it's likely that the Bieber concert would be postponed.
It just seems like a wild coincidence to me that a potential Eastern Conference Finals scheduling conflict would involve a Maple Leafs superfan. After all, it could have just as easily been Leafs/Rangers in the Conference Finals and it wouldn't be an issue because Game 7 (if necessary) would have taken place in Toronto.
