Final Day 1

Well.....that's a way to start a series I guess. The Penguins somehow won game 1 5-3 despite going 37 minutes without a freaking shot on goal. The start of the game was dominant for the Predators and they even got a goal, but of course there was a coach's challenge for an offside and of course they goal was called back. Then the Penguins got 2 goals in a span of 1:05. The Penguins also made it 3-0 when the puck bounced off of Ekholm and into the net. The 2nd period was absolutely dominant for the Predators, but they only got 1 goal to make it 3-1. About halfway through the 3rd the Predators got 1 more then 3 minutes later they got another one so it was all tied up. Jake Guentzel got the first Penguins shot for 37 minutes and scored on swiss cheese Pekka Rinne. An empty net goal made it 5-3. We learned that this will be a close series, but the Penguins need to improve because they got lucky this time. Game 2 is on Wednesday where the Predators will look to get the split in Pittsburgh and take it back 1-1 in Nashville. Can the Predators bounce back? Can the Penguins have a better game? Who will win game 2? stay tuned....
