Cavs fans hope their team can do what the Nashville Predators did in Game 3 of the Stanley Cup final.
Down 2-0, the Preds beat the Pens at home to pick up their first win of the series.
Nashville was lit before, during and after the win, but we're going to focus on the long goalscorer for the Penguins in Game 3, and that would be none other than Jake Guentzel.
The 22-year-old has been lighting it up in the Stanley Cup final with four goals (two game winners) and 13 for the entire postseason.
Guentzel has played his way into the Conn Smythe conversation thanks to his timely scoring. Playing with Sidney Crosby doesn't hurt, either, but during the Cup final, Guentzel has already somehow passed Crosby in this category, career Stanley Cup final goals.
We know Guentzel has four goals in his Cup final career, but Crosby only has three in 22 games, and two of them came in Game 3 of his first trip to the final against Detroit.
Crosby hasn't scored a goal in the Stanley Cup final since 2009 (Game 4 against the Red Wings), but he does have 13 assists in his Cup final career.
That said, we're not sure what's more shocking, the fact that Guentzel has scored four goals thus far in the final or that Crosby has only scored three career goals in the Stanley Cup final.
Either way, both players are a big reason why the Penguins are up in this series, and they can help Pittsburgh take a 3-1 lead Monday night with a win in Nashville.
