Halfway in to the game it looked like a good move since Pittsburgh had a 2-0 lead but at end Tampa won 4-3 after overtime, strong comeback by Tampa, this was the first match Pittsburgh lost for all season when leading after 2 periods, they were 46-0-0.

Tampa now have the chance to decide this series at home ice at Tuesday.. :f_cool:

Tonight 5th game between St Louis and San Jose :f_drink:

What a bad luck for Pittsburgh, much better again than Tampa but Fleury wasn't really good. Analysts were already 50/50 about the goalie change but it seems they should have let Murray in. The rebound control of the Flower was terrible at times. First game of the series I've seen, it was a fun one.

Kucherov is amazing for Tampa though, that guy is always so phenomenal in the play offs. And he's a lot of fun to watch.

So far Pittsburgh has outshot Tamp significantly in 4 of 5 games but they are 3 - 2 down, gotta hurt.

Nice! I just got a LA Kings Kopitar shirt from a friend and in a few weeks I will be in Boston. Going for a Bergeron, Rask or Chara shirt, still in doubt....

Here a piece about Kucherov:

Apparently next to his 19 points he is also +17 (!!!!!!!!!!!!) in only 16 games, which is crazy high. He's the front runner for the play offs MVP now if Tampa reaches the final.

Nice, Sharks have won away with 6-3 at St Louis. Another doubtful goalie change happened for St Louis already last game but Allen got lit up last night. The great Pavelski with 2 goals and 1 assist.

Sharks lead the series 3-2 and can finish it off at home.

i do like Detroit also since they have alot of Swedish players,, but now they have alot of key players that start to get old and not so productive as before so i think they need build a new generation that will lead them in future :f_drink:

Well done by Tampa. So they have 2 changes to win 1 match.
That seems possible, but you never know until it’s finished.

They will play away but so far they won 2 out of 3 games away so maybe its a advantage to play away in this series :f_ugly:

San Jose is in Stanley Cup Final for the first time :f_thumbsup: , after winning 5-2 against St Louis in night.

I am sure not many thought they would make it this far before the season started, and i dont think they was that impressive in regular season, but they played great now in playoff and have some great top players that actually never played any final before, will be a great final and later today we will see if they will play Pittsburgh or Tampa :f_thumbsup:.

So the final series for this season started, i think it was a final with 2 faces, 1st and 3rd period Pittsburgh was better and San Jose was better in 2nd, at end Pittsburgh was able to win 3-2 (2-0 0-2 1-0) after a late goal in 3rd period.

i still think Pittsburgh will win this final, mainly because they have a wider team where everybody can decide a game, while in San Jose it looks like its mostly the top line , so if Pittsburgh stops them they will win. What you guys think?

Time will tell and so long it will end in a 7th game in the end it doesn’t matter for me who will win in the end.

Pittsburgh took a 2-0 lead in series after 2-1 win in overtime , now San Jose need to win home games to stay with a chance to win the cup , can they do it? :f_rolleyes:

Nice start of Pittsburgh. So now it will be tough to get a 7th match in the end, but still enough matches to go. The 3th game will be crucial for San Jose I think.

San Jose won their first Stanley cup final ever after a 3-2 win in overtime at game 3 , Pittsburgh still lead series 2-1 and i do think they was better in this game also so still think they will win Stanley cup this year.

Pittsburgh is the much better team so far, which actually surprises me. Will the East finally win a Stanley Cup again? Last time was Boston in 2011, after that the cup always went to Chicago or Los Angeles.
