The Pittsburgh Penguins are in a prime position to hoist the Stanley Cup trohpy for the first time since 2009. The Penguins have been a class above the San Jose Sharks in this series, and I think they'll get the job done in front of the home fans tonight.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Home Cookin' - The Pens are 9-3 on home ice here in the playoffs, and they're 4-1 in the last five meetings with the Sharks at Consol Energy Center. The Sharks have lost six of their past eight on the road.

2. Special Teams - The Sharks main advantage heading into the finals was their superior numbers on the power play. Pittsburgh has played smart though, limiting the Sharks chances to play with a man advantage to the minimum. San Jose has mustered one power play goal on eight chances over the first four games of the series.

3. X-Factor - Pittsburgh's 22 year old rookie netminder Matt Murrary has been fantastic in this series, limiting the Sharks to a total of seven goals.

Selection: This is a play on the Pittsburgh Penguins (8*)
