"I thought I was pretty good in Game 4", the 23-year-old Murray said Wednesday. "We knew we could play better". "I'm getting to that point where I think I can handle all (these) situation (s)".
Although the Penguins' 9-3 record at PPG Paints Arena this spring isn't quite the equal of Nashville's 9-1 mark at Bridgestone Arena, it reflects the high level at which they routinely perform there.
"The teams that are having success, I think speed is a common denominator that runs through their lineups", Penguins coach Mike Sullivan said.
"We love playing at home", Cullen said. With the series tied at two, and both teams defensing their home rinks, the Pens and Preds know that the victor tonight gets a huge upper hand in the chase for the Stanley Cup. He picked Pekka Rinne apart for five goals in the first six periods and then three minutes into the seventh. Guentzel picked up the secondary assist on the goal, tying him for the most all-time (20) by a rookie in the playoffs. Conor Sheary and Ron Hainsey also scored in the second period as Pittsburgh put the game out of reach. "We came here with the mission to win the game and we didn't have the start or the game we wanted". After a horrific 78% percent save percentage in Pittsburgh, the Rinne Wall showed out at home with an astronomical 96.2% save percentage. Losing the two previous games in Nashville gave them something to think about on the trip home. The Penguins goalie, who had allowed nine goals combined in the last two games, rebounded in a big way by stopping all 24 Nashville shots. "Nothing's done yet and we've got a lot of work ahead of ourselves".
For Pittsburgh, Phil Kessel and Evgeny Malkin need to get their game in gear, they have been nearly absent from this entire series and the Pens can't afford to have them not contributing. Game 5 was by far their best performance of the series. However, the Nashville Predators struck back on home ice to sweep at home and even the series with a complete performance Monday night with a 4-1 victory.

Rinne insisted his confidence isn't shaken though he was disappointed with Thursday's result. "In 80 games, to score 30 is not easy", said Arvidsson, who scored 22 in his first full American Hockey League season.
Is this a truly the reemergence of The Finnish Force Field, or is it just a mirage covered up by the Nashville faithful?This NHL Finals has not been for the feint of heart. The country singer has written a song called "Bring the Stanley Cup to Tennessee" in honor of Nashville's hockey team, the Predators making it to the Stanley Cup Finals. Backup Juuse Saros didn't fare much better, giving up three goals in relief.
"The start is not good enough, the second period was even worse, and the third period, I mean, it's already 6-0", Forsberg said of the game that pushed the Predators to the brink of elimination for the first time in these playoffs. Perform like that again in Game 6 on Sunday, and the Penguins will surely become the first repeat champions since Detroit two decades ago. Four of the prior 12 clubs went on to win the Cup: the 1966 and 1971 Montreal Canadiens, 2009 Penguins and 2011 Boston Bruins.
"You come here with the mindset that you knew what happened the first two games, but that's not going to change the way I play or prepare", Rinne said.
