If you are a fan of the Pittsburgh Penguins, you have every reason to think it's over. The Pens have won three games in a row, they're back at home, and they've come back like this so many times before vs. the Capitals it's almost as if they're following a script.

It happened in 1992, 1995, and 1996, and now it is happening again in 2009 despite all that Alex Ovechkin is doing in the series.

The Capitals must be wondering if they've set themselves up for yet another failure by the franchise against the Penguins, who won six of the seven previous playoff matchups between the rivals.

In case you needed one more stat to sway tonight's Game 6 in the Penguins’ favor, they have never lost when they have had the chance to close out Washington in a series, going 6-0. Get all your NHL playoff odds in the Bodog Sportsbook.
