Stadium: PPG Pains Arena (Pittsburgh)
The second race is preceded by NY Islanders 0-1
Pittsburgh Penguins (Θέση1η Div. Ν.29-ΝΠ.8-ΗΠ.3-Η.16 Τέρμ.196-156)
What if they only counted six (6) at home in a total of twenty-eight (28) games. What if they had more days of rest. Finally at 3η period proved to be inferior to the circumstances and eventually led by force the match to extra time where they were ultimately defeated fairly based on the overall picture of the match. But now they know that things are getting tighter and if they want if they do not throw in the trash all season they have to win tonight. In fact, tonight the problems may be eliminated as both DeSmith C. (T.20pm / 91.36% response) and the good Malkin E. (E.33pm / 8gol / 20assist) are doubtful with the chances in their favor.
New York Islanders (Position4η Div. Ν24-NP8-US7-Η. 17 Term.156-128)
They endured in 1η period. Balanced in 2η and essentially in 3η and in overtime proved to be better and managed to achieve 1η victory this year at this headquarters. Perhaps the most important victory as it gives them 1ο and a significant lead breaking the seat. Now they just have to look just as good and do what they did in 1ο match. Varlamov S. (T.36sm./92.94% reply) was absent but now he is doubtful like Lee A. (E.27sm./12gol/7assist) but with the chances that he is not on their side.
I can not see how they will lose 2ο series of home matches the "Penguins". Maybe the stress or the overconfidence ate them. They may be overcrowded. Now they will definitely be prepared, as in case of a defeat they may say goodbye to the event. Ace.
