Big night in the hockey world tonight as Sir. Stanley will be in the Mellon Arena tonight to take in Game 6 for the Wings and Penguins.  After one of the worst games played by Fleury and the Penguins, the team has one chance to redeem them selves and force a game 7 back in Detroit for Friday night.

The big question on every bodies mind is, how are they going to bounce back after a 5-0 thumping, and there #1 goalie getting pulled?  The team has the fire power (we all know who) and we know they are a tested bunch from this and last years run.  I also believe that they know from last year, how much more they will have to put into this game to force that decisive game 7.  I believe with the extra day off that each team is going to give it all they have, not worry about game 7, cause if the Penguins dont put one of there best games together tonight, they wont be packing there bags for detroit, they will be packing them up to head home.

I think Pittsburgh is going to embrace the home ice advanatage and come out strong in the first 10 minutes, and if they are able to jump on the Redwings and get one goal to start it, they will force Detroit to pick up the tempo for the remainder of the game.  If Detroit can silent the crowd, or get to the early start, the Penguins fans will get to see the cup again in there building, and being carried around in the Red Wings Hands. 

As for MY Prediction for tonight's game, I am going to say 3-2 for Pittsburgh (want to say OT for the excitement, but thinking they play up 3-1, and play a tight 3rd period to decide it).  Lets see how it all comes down!

I hope you're wrong. I think Datsyuk being healthy competely shifts the dynamic of the series.
