EDMONTON — Ryan Bowness was a 33-year-old scout for Pittsburgh back in 2017 when the Penguins won the Stanley Cup, bestowing upon the Bowness family their first Stanley Cup ring.

Today, Khudobin is 34 and near the end of the line. Like teammates Joe Pavelski who has never won, and Corey Perry , who won as a sophomore in Anaheim and has never been back, this is very likely their last kick at the cat as well. “I have more respect for it. More of a smile,” he said. “You realize how hard it is to get to this point. Back in the Boston days you figured it was going to happen every other year, with how my career started. I know the worth of the Cup a lot more, and how it is to get here. So, I am definitely knowing every moment.”

“It’s the opportunity you have. Everything that’s happened so far? Nothing matters. It’s one series. Anything can happen in these moments.”
