ANAHEIM -- When the Anaheim Ducks prepare for Game 6 of the Western Conference First Round against the Nashville Predators at Bridgestone Arena on Monday (8 p.m. ET; CNBC, SN, TVA Sports, FS-TN, FS-W), they face a question of how to approach the game mentally holding a 3-2 series lead.
Do they treat it as a must-win game and the belief that it's the final chance to knock the Predators out of the best-of-7 series or do they take solace in the fact that there is the safety net of a Game 7, if necessary?
