It's going to be a tough one. Game 6 is going to be wild I think. Advantage bolts for home ice and experience. Minus points because they still look tired.

BOLTS STAVE OFF ELIMINATION!
I have a feeling that a team on the road is going to win the Cup. Colorado needs to win in Tampa in game 6 or else I think that Tampa will end up winning in Colorado in game 7.
Yup, if Tampa wins Game 6, all the pressure will be on the Av.
They said this about the 2009 Penguins. Oops!
Speaking of the Penguins, I feel like Game 5 between the Avs & Lightning was eerily similar to Game 5 of the 2016 Stanley Cup Final. The Penguins had totally dominated the Sharks yet still lost due in large part to questionable decisions made by the stripes.
At this point I want the Avs to win just because I am tired of hearing Jon Cooper's whining about not getting his way with the refs. He got what he wanted in Game 5 and not he can get bent.
I don’t mind seeing Bolts make history
Jon Cooper is good coach. Refs sometimes irk me off real good.

Nah, I want to see Cory Perry play in the final 3 years in a row and not win the cup. He’s turned into a real turd. He showed a fine example the other night kneeling on the Av player’s ankle as he got up.
I watched him play junior hockey in London. He was a great player and fun to watch but he’s wore on me as he’s aged and become dirty IMO. He’s not as bad as Marchant but close!

AVALANCHE JUST BURIED THE LIGHTNING
Makar gets Conn Smythe, young stud he is 
Makar with the Conn Smythe! What an outstanding young player.
3rd player ever to win the Norris trophy and Conn Smythe. Pretty impressive.

The other two are arguably the two best defensemen of all time (Orr and Lidstrom) and I daresay that Makar is the best defensemen we've seen since Lidstrom retired.
He is certainly making a case for that! Those names are some big skates to fill. I never watched Orr live (too young) and I remember not liking Lidstrom as a Leaf's fan, lol.

Excellent game 6. Although I rooted for the bolts, it was the better team that won.
Yeah, think Bolts were just wore down from past 3 seasons. Avalanche from what I saw were like the Blackhawks when the won their 3 recently: blinders on and straight ahead to winnin’ the Stanley Cup
