Kind of like Denis Potvin's four consecutive Stanley Cups and membership in the Hall of Fame.

At least Potvin Sucks was borne out of some history between two big rivals, whatever you think of it.

Nashville has no history with Pitt, and their goalie is getting lit up a lot worse than Murray has been in this series.
 
This is a horrid game. Not because Penguins are winning so much (they deserve it completely) but because it is like beer league.
thanks Predators for a wasted game.
 
How anyone can cheer for the Pens after this one is beyond me. Easily the most hateable bunch in the league from top to bottom, the whining of Mario, the diving and complaining of Cindy, the dirty play of Gina, and the NHL officiating for this team.
 
the whole Crosby water bottle thing was funny more than anything else as it didn't interfere with the play, but how do NBC spin it as being ok because Crosby was 'emotional'?
 
Terrible year in sports for me. KD is gonna get a ring, Chelsea win the title, Real Madrid win back2back UCLs, Pats win Superbowl and Pens are probably gonna win the cup.

A Red Sox WS win would be the icing on the cake.

If Malkin and Kessel weren't so weak-minded, it would have been 12-0.

players have good and average and bad games. Malkin is a Conn Smythe winner. Kessel produces and has played in some of the toughest markets in the league. If they're weak minded, then half of our team is mentally handicapped.
 
Nashville probably wins Game 6, 5-1 in front of their zoo.

Another non-competitive game.

This is probably the worst series in a Cup Final in the history of the sport.

I put the soccer game on at 2-0.

I saw someone tweet that the home team is 5-0 in this series outscoring their opponent by like 24-6.

Have we ever seen such a drastic venue effect on a series before?

Rangers vs. Tampa 2015 ECF

Where the Rangers could score at will in Tampa, and couldn't complete two passes at MSG...

We won games in Tampa though. In this series, the home team just completely blows the tires off the away team.

2011 Boston vs Vancouver.

Games were very very close in Vancouver and blowouts in Boston.
