The San Jose Sharks will try to defy the odds again and force a deciding Game 7 in the Stanley Cup Final when they host the Pittsburgh Penguins on Sunday at SAP Center.
Only the 1942 Toronto Maple Leafs have come back to win a Stanley Cup after falling behind 3-1 in a Final series. San Jose took the first step towards duplicating that feat with a 4-2 win in Game 5 of their series last Thursday, thanks in large part to a dazzling 44-save performance from goaltender Martin Jones.
As the Penguins take their second crack at finishing off the series, this time without the advantages that come with home ice, here are the keys to victory for both teams.
