What's with all these two day breaks? If this thing goes 7 games it might go all the way to the 15th. Hard to keep interested.

Worst part is the series is generating some buzz due to all the good things going on in Nashville but with all these breaks between games you could excuse a large portion of North America for even forgetting it's still going on as it's simply dragging out far too long. There should never be more than a one game break in any round of the playoffs unless there's scheduling conflicts.

NBA is doing the same thing. It has to be to coordinate with broadcasters schedules, and what they feel would yield the best viewerhsip overall throughout the week.
Could also be set up to avoid NBA and NHL conflicting with one another for their games.

This should be a great game. Pens need a win. I never count them out, but if they have to go back to Nashville facing elimination then it will not be looking pretty.

Sunday night in Nashville is going to be insane. CMA fest is this weekend at the football stadium and combine with the game Sunday....good lord. They are going to burn that city down.
Nashville plans for ‘epic’ downtown party as Stanley Cup Final, CMA Fest converge

expects more than 100,000 people could be in downtown Nashville on Sunday. That would include more than 45,000 at Nissan Stadium for the festival, a sellout crowd of nearly 18,000 at Bridgestone Arena for hockey and another 50,000-plus people on the streets

If all Russians are like Bryz then we need better ties with that country.

That, but I think it also has to do with travel. The 2 day breaks are all between games with travel in them. Allows the teams to adjust, and prepare. I personally have no issue with it.

I have no reason for my irrational dislike of Mr. PA Parenteau
I am glad that Wilson drew in the lineup, even before the Calgary connection with Wilson's father.

I'm also glad that Cody McLeod is no longer in the regular playoff lineup for the Preds. Useless facepuncher of a plug. I mean, that's all he can do.
