How to watch Game 6 between Pittsburgh and Tampa Bay.

Scouting the Penguins
It's not likely Mike Sullivan will announce his starter until game time, so the biggest question will be who goes in net: Matt Murray or Marc-Andre Fleury. Rookie standout vs. playoff-experienced veteran. The loss of Trevor Daley to injury has done the team no favors on defense, but it's make or break time for the Penguins' biggest stars. Evgeni Malkin promised a Game 7 back in Pittsburgh, so it's time to see if they deliver.
Scouting the Lightning
Nikita Kucherov's first two goals of the series were key moments in their Game 5 win. Tampa Bay will also have to cut down on their defensive lapses at the ends of periods that almost put the game away. The Lightning have yet to outshoot the Penguins overall in a game, but they held the advantage in puck possession in Game 5. Andrei Vasilevskiy will likely get the start in net again as the Lightning look to close out the series on home ice.
