Darcy Kuemper will spend the night before Game 1 of the Cup Final waiting by his phone.
That\'s how the Avalanche goaltender will learn -- via text message from the coaching staff -- whether he or backup Pavel Francouz will get the all-important first start against the Lightning on Wednesday night.
\"We just usually get a text, and they\'ll let us know who is starting the next night,\" Kuemper told reporters during media day on Tuesday. \"I\'m ready to go. For me, it\'s just sticking with the same routine, making sure you\'re sharp in practice and treating it like a game situation, so that when the real game comes, you\'re ready to go.\"
