And the Penguins lay another egg. It all gets down to goaltending. In the first two games Rinne wasn't very sharp and the Pens won despite getting outplayed. Last night they actually outplayed Nashville for stretches, but just couldn't get the puck in the net.

The funny part is the Pens played much better in Nashville than they did in Pittsburgh. The difference was Rinne. Hopefully he'll take the same bad drugs he had the first time he was in Pittsburgh. Oh yeah, the defensemen for Nashville have stopped scoring on their own net. Gotta figure out how to get them to start that again.

Well that worked out now didn't it? Rinne has given up 11 goals on 45 shots in Pittsburgh, but 3 goals on 52 shots at home. Hoping that they get it done on Sunday. I'm not sure I could take game 7.

We need Game Seven. Remember there's no more good hockey for months and months. Three months until training camp opens and 4 months until the season starts. I think Kessel is going to stop playing around and score big time. He's missing the golf course now.

Yeah I know they called back that goal when they shouldn't have, but they also gave them a 5 on 3 with two bogus penalties. Nashville couldn't get the puck in the net. I know I said this before, but:
I want you to know, and I mean this in all sincerity, but I hope Pittsburgh gets eliminated in the first round next year. I couldn't take the finals three years in a row.

Thought the refs were trying to protect the goalies because both sides were getting pretty aggressive around the net. The series would have gone back to Pittsburgh and there is no way the Preds were going to win in Pittsburgh.

Remember that time the Predators were good?
No one else will either.
