LOL ... and it's no where near the crushing retort I wanted to be able to plop down :facepalm: Preds didn't even show up for the game tonight. Penguins took command early and deserved to win that one.
I think we'll win in Nashville on Sunday, but a Stanley Cup win in Pittsburg would be a (welcome) surprise the way things look now.
It seems to me that the Pens decided not to take anything and really got into the Predators' heads. The Predators were more interested in fighting and dishing out punishment than skating and scoring. Will the Predators be able to come back from the embarrassment, will the Pens think they can slid on by and not show up for the Nashville game? These questions will be answered soon enough ... just remember, it ain't over till it's over!
I am pulling for the Preds to win it all (so at least I can say my beloved Blackhawks were ousted by the eventual Stanley Cup champions!), but I have to give the Pens credit for last night. They out-hustled, out-muscled and just plain out-played Nashville all over the place.
In general, I hate hockey games that are essentially out of reach before the game is half over. Makes for boring hockey and too much rough stuff.
