from Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun,

One game for all the marbles.

Why would have you expected anything less when the top two teams are going head-to-head in the second round of the Stanley Cup playoffs?

It’s a fitting end to a series between two Western Conference powerhouses.

As has been the case throughout this hard-fought series, no team has been able to string together consecutive victories.

Thanks to a 4-0 victory over the Winnipeg Jets on Monday night, the Nashville Predators forced a seventh and deciding game on Thursday at Bridgestone Arena.

The winner moves on and the loser goes home to ponder what might have been.
