Stanley Cup Final: Pittsburgh Penguins vs. Nashville Predators

I'm glad that Pittsburgh has decided to hand out breakaways like caramel-infused popcorn at the county fair.

How would you infuse popcorn?
 
From Music City to hockey tonk.  From fans to celebrities.  Nashville rolled out the red carpet for the Predators and played it l-o-u-d...

I've worked Montreal's Bell Centre in full, deafening playoff roar. Nashville's punishing thunder tonight is louder than that #StanleyCup

Did Crosby purposefully hit the post so it would bank off Rinne's skate and into the net? I'm not sure I can say "no" with 100% certainty.
 
Nashville might honestly be the best hockey crowd in the NHL. Constantly on their feet and cheering. They seem to know all the rules. They don't stupidly boo any penalty called against them when it's a legit call. They don't pretend there's a rivalry with the other teams best player and boo them anytime they touch the puck. And their chants (goalie chants in particular) might be the best I've ever heard in any sport. Big props to a very underappreciated market.
 
That draft interview with Don there might have been the most awkward thing I've seen on HNIC.

Eeech!

Wow, Matt Murray's glove is getting exposed big time. Preds going there over and over.

The "book" is out on Murray. This has got to be one of the laziest media-driven narratives ever. And I could make a list of 100s of them.

That's fun. Don't the shooting stats say blocker side has a lower save percentage though?
 
The chants have been around hockey in the US for a long time, I think they originated in NCAA.  Have been hearing them in AZ for 10 years.

Way to lard it out, NHL.

NBA is way worse, thank god that series isn't going seven! Game 1 on June 1st and Game 7 on June 18th....yeah lets drag the Finals out for 2 1/2 weeks.
So exciting!!!  ::)

That's the sequel.  That book isn't out yet.
 
Nice cabinet.  Nashville's playoff rookie sensation Frederik Gaudreau doesn't have a locker..

3 days apart the rest of the way... why? Blue Jays are out west too (10pm start) and I'm not an NBA fan. Sports drought right now.
