Love that Charles Barkley has been giving the NHL some love over the NBA.
Also, one more guaranteed game in Nashville!
Probably because the NBA is soft and having played during the Golden Era of the NBA he knows both teams playing now would be owned by the top teams when he played.
As for this series, it's been good like it usually is from what I've seen. I travel a lot and with no XM radio or national radio broadcast on standard radio, I have only seen 2 1/2 of the 4 games and will probably miss a large chunk of the game tomorrow.

Stream the radio feed. 102.5thegame.com for the Nashville feed. Pete Weber is one of the best.
The Penguins defeated the Predators 6-0 in Game Five in the Stanley Cup Final. The Penguins take a 3-2 series lead to Nashville, Tennessee, for Game Six on unday, 11 June, at Bridgestone Arena.
The Penguins looked gassed in the first four games of this series. Even in Games 1 and 2, they didn't look very crisp despite winning. After the Predators tied up the series, I began to worry that the Penguins had nothing left in the tank, and I figured that Game 5 would tell us everything about the state of the team since they had two days to rest instead of one. What a rejuvenation. That's the best I've seen them play since Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals. Hopefully they didn't blow their load in this game, or they'll go the way of the Red Wings in 2009.
I doubt the Penguins were gassed in games one and two. They showed up in the third period in both games to win. Passing over shooting, playing in the defense zone too long, and team members not stepping up, visible in games one and two, doomed them in games three and four.
How the Penguins played Game Five is how they should play Game Six.
"Badger Bob" Johnson said "It is a great day for hockey." It is a great day for hockey indeed. I would like to take it a step farther. It will be a greater day when the Penguins win and hoist the Stanley Cup.
