How big of a hole is falling down 2-0 in a Stanley Cup Final?
45 of 50 teams that have gone up 2-0 in a Stanley Cup Final, have gone on to win. That’s a 90% clip.
The Penguins have been on both sides of history.
They are one of the 5 teams to come back from being down 2-0, winning four of final five games in the 2009 Stanley Cup Final, and tonight marks the third time in franchise history where the Penguins have gone up 2-0 in a Stanley Cup Final.
1992 – Won series in 4 games.
2016 – Won series in 6 games.
2017 – ?
— Team that have won the first two games of the Stanley Cup Final at home have won 34 of 37 series —
Pens should split in Nashville and have a shot in game 5 at home.
Agreed, the best thing to do now is try to lose one to appease a moron!
