Nashville just cant seem to win in Pittsburgh. Even if preds win in game 6 they still going to have to find a way to win game 7 in Pittsburgh.

Something about being in Pittsburgh causes Pekka Rinne & preds defense to look like they don't belong in the Finals.
They did not have this big a problem being on the road in Chicago, St Louis or Anaheim. If they win game 6, based on their current play in Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh will just need to show up in game 7 to receive Lord Stanley Mug.

If Nashville plays like they did in games 3 & 4, this should go to game 7.
If that does happen Nashville especially Pekka Rinne will have to do something they haven't been able to do, not be out scored in Pittsburgh.

Congratulations to Pittsburgh Penguins on their repeat, very first repeat in the Cap era.

So it can be done


Added later: Next up the expansion draft for Las Vegas Knights, 10 days away.

That was an awful goal to let in. Preds seemed to be out to lunch on that play.

Yes Congrats to the Pens on winning back to back cups. Wonder when we will see that again? Can pens do a 3 peat?

It may depend who Knights grab off the Penguins (i.e Marc Andre Fleury, along with other possibilities) & who goes for free agency on July 1.

Then how much stronger others team Eastern Conference gets, so many factors.

I knew Pittsburgh would win as soon as the media was predicting Nashville. Anyway, the worst part of the game was the goal Nashville scored, but didn't count because the ref screwed up BIG TIME!

In most cases rear ref tries to have unobstructed view, if he had been either behind net or on the other side. It would have been a goal, oh well next year.
