Because the Penguins have the better record, the Predators will be on the road four times in the finals. Nashville is the first 16th seed to reach the championship. Led by P.K. Subban, Roman Josi, Ryan Ellis, Filip Forsberg and Pekka Rinne, they’ve blown away everyone who they’ve faced. Should the Predators win, it will be their first Stanley Cup in franchise history.

On the other side of the ice, the Penguins are looking to defend their title. Should they win, they’ll be the first team to repeat as Stanley Cup champions since the Detroit Red Wings in 1996-97 and 1997-98. Pittsburgh is led by their two elite centers, Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin. Rookie goaltender Matt Murray returns to the championship for the second straight year. This should be a very competitive series.
