YTD: 48-29. (NHL Playoffs Only) Last Pick: Sharks(LOST) Last 18 Picks: 13-5
SCF Game 3 Pick: SHARKS
The Pens are 3-0 in Game 3s this post season while The Sharks are 1-2. The numbers favor The Penguins but this is beyond a must win game for The Sharks. They have yet to be a position like this in the post season. Not even the LA Kings ever took a series lead again them.
The good news is that as dominant as a road team The Sharks were in the regular season they have been an even better home team in this years playoffs as they are winners of 7 out of 9 home games.
For The Sharks to win the next couple of games at home, two things must really happen. The first is to stop The Pens "HBK" line; Hagelin, Bonnino, Kessel have combined for 19 goals/31 assists in 20 games.
The second thing is Jones needs to have a perfect game and Jumbo Joe, Pavelski, Hertl, Ward, Coutoure need to be even sharper and really put up 4-5 goals and make Murray less confident. They should be scoring a couple more goals in each game but I predicted before Game 1 this will be a series that has games ending in 2-1 more likely then 6-3.
***I have lost my last two picks, took the sharks in both game 1 and game 2.**

I took the Sharks the first two games as well and what a disappointment, I really thought they'd adjust better in game 2. Jones is really what kept them in it the last 2 games. What the Sharks need to do is test Murray early, throw everything at the net and not let him get comfortable and do everything they can to get more than 1 Power Play. Otherwise I just don't see how they can beat the Pens. I didn't think the speed would be this difficult for SJ to deal with but it exhausts them and you can see it. They have to get bodies and shots to the net and get those ugly goals.
I still haven't decided if I'm going pick a ML but I'm def taking the Under 5.5 for these reasons:
Under 5.5 for the Pens:
- 5-0 L5 SCF games
- 4-1 L5 playing on two days rest
- 7-2 L9 following a win
- 18-4 L22 allowing 2 goals or less in the previous game
Under 5.5 for the Sharks:
- 5-0 L5 playing on 2 days rest
- 5-0 L5 following a loss
- 4-1 L5 after scoring 2 or less goals in the previous game
- 18-5 L23 when their opponent scores 2 or less goals
