Number 1: Preds Win First Ever Stanley Cup Final Game

The Nashville Predators are only three weeks removed from losing the Stanley Cup Finals to the Pittsburg Penguins, and while this might still sting for many of the fans it is important that what was achieved this year is not forgotten.

Nashville lost both their games in Pittsburg to start the Stanley Cup Finals, but then the Penguins had to come to Nashville. The city hosted their first ever Cup Finals match-up on Saturday, June 3rd, and the town was buzzing. Music City showed everyone just how the south does hockey, and it was unlike anything the NHL had ever seen before.

Broadway was packed with fans to the point where it was hard to even walk up and down the streets. Fans came from all over Tennessee to watch their team make history and that is exactly what they did, beating the Penguins 5-1. The first Stanley Cup Finals game ever played in Nashville was won by the good guys, and the city rejoiced.
