Hockey fan excited to watch Stanley Cup Finals during basketball commercial breaks

MINNEAPOLIS—The LA Kings and New Jersey Devils meet tonight for Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals and self-proclaimed “hockey nut” Jonathan Banks couldn’t be any more excited to watch the game during the commercial breaks of the Boston Celtics and Miami Heat Eastern Conference game.

“Us hockey fans look forward to the Stanley Cup Finals each year,” said Banks. “It’s the Holy Grail of hockey, the best of the best, and I’m not going to miss a single second of the first half hour before the Heat and Celtics game starts nor one second of it while the basketball game is taking a commercial break.”
