After coming out hot in the first two games and taking a commanding 2-0 lead in the Stanley Cup Final series, the Pittsburgh Penguins suddenly found themselves even 2-2 after their trip to Nashville. The series was all knotted up, and the Predators were proving to be the team everyone was raving about throughout the playoffs.
The Penguins knew they had to come to play on Thursday night for Game 5, and thatโs exactly what they did, dominating the Preds 6-0, and taking back control of the series.
Penguinsโ fans were awfully quiet after Game 3 and 4, but reemerged on Thursday night and showed pride in the black and gold across the Internet. See some of the best reactions below:
