Top Player Tweets of the Week (June 7 – June 14)

And then there were two. The Stanley Cup Finals have officially kicked off, and whether their teams are still in the running or not, the players couldn’t be more excited about the playoffs. This week, the guys took to Twitter to share in their love of the sport and their thoughts on Game One with fans.

And, as always, Paul Bissonnette and Evgeni Malkin are back to chirping each other on Twitter. You might remember this exchange from last December. This week, Bissonnette and Malkin were at it again:
