Perds in 5

 

Series seems like a 7-game one, but I'll take a guess and say Preds in 6.

 

I feel (weirdly) confident going Preds in 6. This Pens team has got to be tired.

 

I'm torn between Perds b/c I don't want the Pens to repeat and Pens so that I still have ultimate bragging rights over Yhris Cates

 

"How many Cups do you have, bro?"

 

Cheapest ticket on the open market for game three is $990.

 

due to a ton of playoff experience I`m saying pens in 7

 

The hockey world is finally really really taking notice of what's going on in Nashville.

 

I get that it's good for them to rest up between series but no hockey til Monday just feels like torture.

 

Preds in 6 sounds good to me

 

Outdoor games in the heat are great lol.

 

It can get cold, like in the 30's, but the weather is so unpredictable in the south I don't see how it could work.

 

they had an outdoor game at dodgers stadium. You basically get a shit load of high end chillers/hvac equipment to keep the ice from melting lol.

 

I want to say Pittsburgh has the edge because they've made it this far with that shell of a defense corps and Nashville is missing their best center, but Rinne's playing out of his mind now and that defense is the best in the league. I also think Forsberg is good enough to carry their offense through a series if he needs to & they have some guys from the AHL who are talented but never got much of a shot to produce in the regular season. Hope for Nashville's sake this doesn't come down to special teams because the most they can hope for there is a draw.

 

Someone mentioned the idea of having it at Neyland Stadium. Would be a cool atmosphere but probably too far away from Nashville.

 

I was hoping to go a game in Nashville (through my girlfriend's uncle) but saw the ticket prices and no thank you. Holy shit. I'll just cheer the Pens on here. That game last night was so unreal. I'm still recovering.

 

Do people not realize that Nashville is popular af?

 

I always knew this. I think maybe casual fans aren't as aware of how good of a fanbase Nashville has.

 

Precisely

 

Nashville is basically Hollywood South.

 

Haha Yep.

*dies inside even more*

 

Nashville is basically the Brooklyn of Tennessee, I would imagine their ticket prices are just as much as the rangers. Speaking of, is there are a chart that shows who charges most to least?

 

I feel like Rinne is playing out of his mind for sure, however, however the pens have now cracked 2 Vezina trophy candidates and a guys who played his fucking heart out and stood on his head nightly. Seriously, even though it would have gone to Karrlson, Anderson should have gotten the Conn Smythe for his performances. I like the pens chances. Barring more injuries.

 

I'm still upset about last night. Anderson should've won that game. He was so great all night, and a majority of the series and playoffs. I would've loved to see Anderson and Rinne battle it out
