Local hero

In Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Finals, feel free to root against the Chicago Blackhawks, which eliminated the Wild once again, and cheer for Minnesota's own J.T. Brown, son of ex-Viking Ted Brown, and his Tampa Bay Lightning. 6 p.m. KARE, Ch. 11.

Big shot

Exec producer Curtis Jackson — that's 50 Cent to most of us — can relate to the plot of the Season 2 premiere of "Power." After an assassination attempt, Ghost gets even more deeply involved in his illegal drug operation. 8 p.m. Starz
