Not a series I feel comfortable wagering on...but if I was going to I'd take the Pens in 6.

I expect more predictions after the series.

Next game will be harder though and we will have to step it up even more to pull off a win. Go Pens.

Sounds familiar after a win.

Rust is day to day now after that sideline hit. A little surprised he's injured now because they said on NBC he passed the concussion test.

Sharks were starstruck since it was their first appearance in the finals. Once the shock is worn off, boy, the Sharks should devour and feast on the Penguins on game 2!

If they were starstruck they'd have been blown out. Instead, they got beat by better players.

IMO, coulda/shoulda/woulda scored more in 1st if they stopped trying to make an extra move and just shoot. Hornqvist especially.

That Crosby backhand pass on Sheary's was sick. That there was Mario-like extra-peripheral vision. Eyes in back of his head kinda stuff.

Those that only surface during the playoffs/box score fans come up with some interesting ideas.

That position is excellent for every home team in a 7 game series, but a win tomorrow is certainly not a must win for the Pens.

You must be listening to The Fan or some other media outlet that states the obvious. Again, that's a great scenario for every home team in a 7 game series...but tomorrow is not must win.
