I find it hard to believe that the public is on Nashville like white on rice......

**lakerboy** · 06-03-17, 09:58 AM

Is rinne starting? Lavy didn't say yesterday. I hope Nashville wins. It isn't good for sports when finals end up in sweeps.

**Mr KLC** · 06-03-17, 10:12 AM

I think this is going to be a series where the home team reigns. This will be 2-2 soon.

Nash 4-2

**GzaTheGenius** · 06-03-17, 10:54 AM

Nashvilles home advantage is among the best in hockey. Although home/away hasn't seemed to matter much this postseason

**mikejamm** · 06-03-17, 10:58 AM

Nashville clearly outmatched. Preds might get a game at home, but the Pens have dominated the Preds defense. Nashville got extremely lucky to be where they are being a 16th seed, but Pittsburgh is a city of hockey greats and the Lord Stanley Cup will definitely be staying there.

**Mr KLC** · 06-03-17, 11:11 AM

My first finals game that I'm seeing live in any professional sport. Gonna be a blast.

**Dollars2Donuts** · 06-03-17, 11:18 AM

Congrats KLC, very cool.

Preds are the wager tonight for me, but smallish. Nothing compared to my first two Pens bets when they were at home.

Preds actually outplayed Pittsburgh in 4/6 periods on the road but had issues with Murray (no surprise) and Rinne didn't step up. My opinion is that Rinne has his best game of the series and Nashville continues to dominate in faceoffs, and that they will have the puck the majority of the night tonight. Also look to them to have a clear advantage on the power play, although they may not score a PPG it will help them shift the flow of it gets lopsided.

Preds and under 5.5 are the best wagers tonight.

**TheMoneyShot** · 06-03-17, 04:38 PM

So many things going on with this game... Nashville in a must win situation... Rinne playing like garbage... Nashville at Home... place should be loud... and then you factor in these so called websites claiming all the money is on Nashville ML and PL.

Let's just cut the sh#$ real fast... Rinne has to play better for Nashville to win... has to hold Pittsburgh to only 2 goals... to have any chance.

Nashville should win but the pens are fluke central. They get all the bounces, calls and they have the best coach. Kind of reminds me of the flyers and Hawks final though . Preds need the first goal badly

**packerd_00** · 06-03-17, 06:32 PM

They need to go back to their grind it out type of boring Hockey,just like how the Senators did it.

Here's a true Predator fan....

**HockeyRocks** · 06-03-17, 06:54 PM

Being a Carolina Hurricane season ticket holder since they moved to NC, i recall the Stanley Cup finals in 2006 when the Canes beat the Oilers and the electricity in the building, especially game #7, the night the Canes won the CUP.....It's so hard to explain the feeling when your team is skating around the rink raising the Cup in front of 20,000 fans..

Tonight, this will be the first time the Preds fans will see a game in the finals.......The arena will be loud, noisy, the fans will be crazy with team loyalty....It will be electric beyond explanation....The Preds will come out hard, hitting everything in site. They will have to be almost perfect to beat the Pens. I was on the Pens the first 2. Tonight i like the Preds in a small way until i see the flow of the game...

**addic3t** · 06-03-17, 07:36 PM

Didn't care to bet on who wins. Instead 2 bets on player scoring. 1 bet already won Guentzel to score@4.00 and waiting for Neal to score@3.10.

**l3randonf** · 06-03-17, 07:52 PM

So far the crowd has been crap. Maybe that hideous national anthem singer sucked out all their energy.
