Pulling Rinne and getting shut out are brilliant.

Now they have extra saves and goals stocked for the next 2 games.

The ironic Sidney dicksucking by the bitter other countries posters upthread is really delicious here at the 2nd intemission where it's already 6-0

Dark Crosby ftw.

Edzo was almost in tears (of rage) when he saw Crosby threw the water bottle on the ice

What did the Penguins ever do to him? He was so mad

So after the Pens with home ice advantage took a 2-0 lead at home, the Preds tied the series up at 2-2 then the Pens blew them out in Game 5.

Hmm, that sounds an awful lot like the 2009 Stanley Cup Final, except back then the Wings had home ice advantage over the Pens. And the Pens won Games 6 and 7 in 2009 after that blowout. And now the Preds have a chance to do the same thing. Hmmmmm...

Keep wishing

Nashville strategy:

Let the Pens get to such a lead that it results in Hainsey scoring. Take the lopsided loss.

Next two games: 30+ minutes of Hainsey on the ice. Results in the Preds dominating play.


Checkmate, solid strategy. Right ? ......Right?

Idk if getting so mad that you start taking 5 minute majors is a good strategy for them, especially after letting Phil Kessel get going for the 1st time in the series.

IIRC teams don't share gate so there's probably a bunch of jerking around about when which games are played at the home arena.

2 days for travel time in the final. Same as last season, I believe. Not sure why or when it started, though.

TBH baseball has a 140+ year history of the grounds crews creating advantages for the home team so I wouldn't be surprised at all if hockey crews figured out a way to do the same.

The finals are scheduled way ahead of time for tv reasons and they have the buffer because of the chance you could end up with say Pittsburgh having to go to San Jose for Game 6 or something like that.

In 09 Games 1 and 2 were consecutive days and they played the first 5 in 8 so I guess they learned
