The game is at Nashville, as is Game 4. They have no wins and are down by 2 games against the Pittsburgh Penguins, four time Cup Winners who are looking for a win this year and their second consecutive
No one came close to being right on their score predictions for Game 2:
Fansided predicted: Preds 3; Pens 1
Vegas Insider: Pittsburgh 4, Nashville 3
Oddsshark: Penguins 4, Predators 3.
Yours Truly: Pens 5, Preds 4 in one OT
Repeating game 3 predictions that were made Thursday:
Fansided predicts: Predators beat Penguins 3-1. (Fan had not made a prediction last Thursday).
Both Oddsshark and Vegas Insider maintain what they predicted on Thursday; a Predators win over the Penguins 6 - 5.
My Game 3 prediction is: Pens 5 , Preds 4Pred goalie Pekke Rinne is expected to start tonight. He was pulled from the net during the third period on game 2's Nashville 4 - 1 loss.
We'll have the score results around seven hours from now.
I kind of expect to see a high-scoring game that takes one or two OT's during this playoff, but maybe not.
I still think Nashville's biggest problem is psychological; they are not playing "in the moment, for the moment." They seem to be chasing after the second Period the minute the puck hits the ice at the start of the game. Instead of looking far-range, they need to micro-focus. If not, the Pens will make this a 4 - 0 series.
Now how's that for not being yet Another Long Boring NHL Post?
Happy Hockey.
