Ratisfaction guaranteed, right?

How about the logos of the three teams Florida took out en route to its third straight appearance in the Stanley Cup Final?

The Toronto Maple Leafs logo is part of the rat’s ear.

We do not know if the towels were dipped in oil or not.

Game 3 of the Cup Final is tonight at 8.

The best-of-7 series is tied at 1.
