8:01 pm
>> eddie: boy, pekka rinne has been spot-on these two games here in nashville. remember at 2-1, pekka rinne made some big-time stops against the penguins when they had that little bit of a surge there in the second period. and rinne, has regained his game after two sub par performances back in pittsburgh in games one and two. 20 straight saves for pekka rinne. and of the 23 shots, doc, got to say, at least eight or nine were a-chances. i mean, grade-a chances. >> mike: some on breakaways.

the one goal was a breakaway by crosby that he got a piece of, it hit the post and then ricocheted off him and in. we mentioned earlier, a country music celebration, the rest of this week. we will be coming back here saturday, and there will be a lot of sequins in town, but nothing like the shine of the stanley cup, which could be presented here to one of the two teams in game six on sunday. out of these penalties, they neutralize because archibald got annoyed at what was happening from ekholm, and so things cancel out. one last explanation here with 1:39 to go, and maybe another explanation, too. >> eddie: should be five-on-five here.
8:03 pm

8:04 pm
drops it back. malkin brings it off. then jammed along. malkin fed it between his point men and so they will retreat to play yet again. the nhl is 100 years old. the adage is probably as old as it. never in trouble until you lose a home game. malkin, kessel. and getting a piece of that was rinne. >> mike: penalty on ryan ellis for cross checking guentzel. kessel again. shoved one in front. sparred for there and now because of the nashville touch, the penalty will be called.
8:05 pm
>> eddie: slash, cross check. that chance, phil kessel just misses on the short side. >> pierre: there's a workout for the left pad. that's a whole lot of strength, too, from pekka rinne right there. that's not an easy thing to do when you're not anchored with your skate on the ice. >> mike: won by the predators. cleared back down.
8:06 pm
it's a best of three. 21 straight saves for pekka rinne. a question mark when he arrived back in nashville, replaced by an exclamation point. and the series is even at two. they salute the crowd here, and the crowd has saluted them all night. see you thursday, 8:00 p.m. on nbc. you're watching the stanley cup final, presented by geico.

8:14 pm
over rent at the ghost ship. at this time the alameda county da will not say whether she also plans to charge the building's owner. the eng family attorney says they're holding off comments at this time. with the investigative unite, i'm vicky nguyen. back to you. our coverage on the warehouse fire case continues in our next half hour. the reason the families of the victims say a third person should face charges. spared the death penalty, sierra lamar's convicted killer finds out his punishment. the legal proceedings are not over yet. jurors declined to recommend the death penalty for antolin torres. damian, some people were surprised by the sentencing, but the lamar family not happy about it. >> reporter: that's right, jessica. a lot of people were surprised. when i asked the jurors individually after they were dismissed by the judge why they shows life without parole instead of death, they would not answer.
8:15 pm
the family of sierra lamar walked out of the courthouse with prosecutors. they don't like it, but the family says they accept the juror's decision not to give antolin garcia torres the death penalty. >> well, i'm glad that he's going to be off the streets. and i have no comment otherwise. >> i would be lying if i said i wasn't disappointed. you know, the crime, i thought, deserved the maximum sentence. >> the jury made it so that he will die in prison and never take another breath as a free man. >> reporter: sierra lamar disappeared five years ago while walking to the school bus stop in morgan hills. the jurors who found him guilty of the murder asked us not to show their faces. ours was the only camera to capture the jury as they left the courthouse after being dismissed from the case. they were escorted by deputies. they had no comment when i asked
8:16 pm
why they chose life instead of death. one said, quote, i'm just an alternate, don't ask me. as the court clerk red the juror's decision, sierra's father buried his face in his hand and shook his head. >> he'll be able to live. sierra won't. >> reporter: defense lawyers today filed a motion for a new trial. a hearing for that motion is scheduled for september. no sentencing date has been set yet. not until this motion by the defense is clarified in september. a antolin garcia torres denied our request for an interview. >> the defense has asked for a new trial because a judge recently overturned another murder conviction based largely on false statistical evidence from the same sergeant who testified in the sierra lamar
8:17 pm
trial. even if he has a new trial, torres won't face the name punishment. >> if there was a new trial, it would only be for life without the possibility of patrol. the death penalty could not be reinstated because the jury spoke today and said it wasn't a death penalty case. >> if there is a new trial, it would likely be held in another county, given all the media coverage of this case. if a new trial is not granted, then sierra lamar's family will get to address garcia torres directly. we've posted photos showing the big moments in the case at nbcbayarea.com. tracking new developments tonight in the russia hacking investigation. the justice department filed charges against a government contractor who they say leaked a top secret nsa document on the

8:32 pm
what happened but knew nothing about the event. his attorneys called the charges a miscarriage of justice. in a written statement they say, "we are confident that this attempt to make a scapegoat out of our client will fail." we tried to reach out to the building's owner today, but we were unable to reach them or their attorney. in oakland, i'm jodi hernandez, nbc bay area news. we've been following the ghost ship fire since the beginning. for the very latest today and continuing coverage, head to our website, web be whnbcbayarea.co. after a day of withering criticism of his outburst of tweets about his travel ban, the president doubled down, saying, quote, we need a travel ban for certain dangerous countries, not some politically correct term that won't help us protect our people. those words could come back to haunt the president, now that his travel ban is in the hands of the supreme court. the white house staff spent
8:33 pm
months avoiding the term "travel ban" to distance president trump from candidate trump, whose rhetoric has so far struck federal judges as prejudicial. >> many people would say it undermines his legal team's credibility before the justice. >> the white house revealed today the president will not prevent former fbi director james comey from testifying about the russia investigation. comey is expected to be questioned by a senate committee this thursday. president trump kicked off a week in which he plans to highlight his infrastructure agenda. he wants to overhaul america's air traffic control system. today he said the current faa-managed system is antiquated, citing delays in the air and on tarmacs. he wants legislation that would move all air traffic control to a private nonprofit agency that can control its own budgets and equipment purchases. >> we're proposing reduced wait
8:34 pm
times, increased route efficiency, and far fewer delays. our plan will get you where you need to go more quickly, more reliably, more affordably. >> new york senator chuck schumer said trump's plan would mean fewer jobs and hurt rural areas. we spent nbc bay area reporter steven sto stephen stock to investigate. >> insiders tell me if privatization is not handled properly, it could cripple the nation's airways because thousands of air traffic controllers are eligible to retire right now. they just might do that, all at once, if they see privatization as a threat to their future. >> reporter: the u.s. has the
8:35 pm
most complex, busiest air system in the world. right now about 10,500 air traffic controllers are on the job in 367 patrol towers around the country. according to the national air traffic controllers association, that's the fewest controllers on the job in 28 years. >> today we're proposing to take american air travel into the future, finally. finally. >> reporter: the president's proposal to privatize the air traffic control system could streamline, centralize, and modernize the system that critics say relies on decades-old technology, such as tracking airplanes with paper strips rather than by computer. >> after billions and billions of tax dollars spent and the many years of delay, we're still stuck with an ancient, broken, antiquated, horrible system that doesn't work. >> reporter: aviation sources say the idea has been kicked
8:36 pm
around in the halls of washington for decades, as a way of taking air traffic control out of the political hands of congress which currently now funds the system every year. in a statement, natca said it had been working with congressional leaders to come up with, quote, a stable, predictable funding stream. but it wants its workers protected from salary cuts. scott conde talked to us last fall about how a critical shortage of air traffic controllers is now impacting the current system. >> we're at an all-time low for certified controllers. it means a lot of overtime, either on the front or end of your shift. >> reporter: several aviation sources tell me their numbers could shrink even more if privatization threatens their pay or pension. nearly one-third of all certified controllers are currently eligible to retire and
8:37 pm
could leave the job with very little notice, likely crippling the nation's i'aviation system. just last fall, the gao released this study on restructuring the current system, recommending there be coordination between the air traffic controllers union and any private entity, and that there be a more stable funding structure than currently exists right now. most democrats and even some republicans oppose the idea of privatization, saying it would give away a public asset to a private company. delta airlines, for its part, released a statement last year opposing the idea, saying it would mean higher cost for people who fly. if you want to learn more, just go to our website, nbcbayarea.com. with the investigative unite, i'm stephen stock, nbc bay area news. terry, jessica, back to you. if you have a story for us, call our tip line. or send an e-mail to theunit@nbcbayarea.com. frustration over a firm

governor brown is promising california will continue to follow the paris climate accord and work with china while doing it. the governor previously made that promise before the president's decision to pull out of the deal. brown says going green is just common sense. >> how can that be when we are growing so much faster than those other states that have virtually no environmental regulations? so green is gold. green is the right path environmentally. it's the right path politically. and it's the right path economically. >> the governor calls president trump's withdrawal from the paris accord, quote, insane. rob mayeda is here now. >> we had temperatures as warm as 90 in concord today. a nice evening in san jose, 66 degrees. can you believe we're talking about a chance of rain in june? we'll let you know when that might arrive, coming up when we
