Both of the goals tonight were created by him too, carried in and set up the first one, created the tap in rebound for the second

Just finished watching the game, bloody good series, Karlsson is fuckin amazing can't disagree and he's so respectful lol how can you not like the guy... Pens v Preds should be excellent, both fast skating teams that like to take risks with elite goaltending there to bail them out, when's it start anyone know?

Will be rooting for Nashville though

have your team play against the Pens in 3 or 4 playoff series and then try and say that.

Nashville is going to have a very tough time without Johansen. Their depth down the middle was already their weakest IMO. Crosby and Malkin are going to have a field day.

This series is going to come down to Rinne. If he plays like he has so far in the playoffs, they have a chance. But even with their elite defence, the offensive talent of the Penguins is going to be incredibly difficult for Nashville to overcome.

I'm still cheering for the Preds, as they've been my team in the West from the start of the playoffs.

Great game, now lets go Preds.

Both teams have dealt with injuries and no Johansen is the more important injury on either side. Should still be a good series. The Preds look like a team on a mission but I thought that with the Sharks last year and we saw how that worked out. I'm thinking Pens in 6 but it could easily go 7.

No one play has dominated for the Pens...Malkin has been the most consistent contributor throughout. I'd argue Rinne should win Conn Smythe regardless of the result. If Murray has a shutdown series...he could even sneak into the discussion. Guentzel has been clutch...3 GWG in their 12 wins. Someone will emerge out of this final series to take the award.

No Letang is a pretty important injury too but he has been out so long he is kind of forgotten.

I think the Preds take the cup, probably in 5 or 6.

I hope so.

I'd love to see them sweep it.
