After winning 3-1 during the night Pittsburgh can win the the Stanley Cup in next home game, once again i think they was the best team and cant really see how San Jose should turn this around..

This was actually the first game San Jose wasn't outplayed but yeah the Penguins deserve the 3-1 lead.
Murray is the man. Pulled for game 5 vs Tampa for Fleury who lost them that game. Back in net for game 6 and since then he has been owning again. The guy is freakin 21 but ice cold.
Oh and Phil Kessel for MVP? So great after all the crap he's been getting the last couple of years
From a blog: "Phil Kessel continues to solidify his bid for the Conn Smythe Trophy. He contributed two primary assists on the Penguins first two goals while dominating on the possession front. Kessel led the Penguins in score-adjusted shot attempts percentage with 67.46%. He leads the team in goals with ten and points with 21. Kessel's presence in the lineup is what afforded Mike Sullivan the option to play with three lines with a star on each of them. This has created the matchup nightmares which have led to the Penguins consistently outshooting teams in the playoffs. Last night was the first time the Penguins have been outshot in 12 games. The streak of 12 games ties an NHL playoff record. Phil Kessel has been a huge part of why the Penguins have had that advantage."
Fum fact. 96.9% of the time the team leading with 3-1 won the Final (highest of any round). Only exception were the Leafs in 42 or 43, even coming back from 3-0
San Jose is still alive after 4-2 win and can tie the serie at home ice in 3 days , apparently goaltender Jones was amazing and had 44 saves, still think Pittsburg will win but if it goes to a 7th game anything can happened,,
Yes the Sharks have won, now it's gonna be epic. Jones was amazing, 19 high danger scoring chances against. Most the Sharks had against since acquiring this stat (2005). Jones is also the first goalie with two 40+ saves wins in the Finals.
Murray allowed 4 goals on 7 shots in the first, hope they keep him in net though. He deserves it albeit this bad performance.
Meanwhile Couture had 3 points and is still leading the point race (20Assists already) but somehow isnt considered as the play off MVP
The Pittsburgh Penguins have won the Stanley Cup 
They won game 6 with 3-1 and showed dominance (again). Every series they were the much better team than their opponents although it almost went wrong against Tampa.
Unbelievable Crosby wins the play offs MVP. 19 points in 24 games, some great defensive hockey, but also -2. Couture had 30 points and +5 and had 6 points more than nr 2 Burnsie. Anyways, it was a great season with maybe a bit disappointing final because the Sharks looked tired and the Pens were MUCH, MUCH better.
Great move to split the 3 topstars Crosby, Kessel and Malkin to 3 lines which maked Pittsburgh to a team where everyone contributed, also a bit surprised to see Crosby get the MVP, for sure he was good but not that good,,

Season 2016-2017 have started, where is Amsterdam with all news and analyses?
The Penguins won again the Stanley Cup. So even without analyses is that tough to win the Stanley Cup 2 times in a row I think.
