10* Chicago +117

I think Chicago has a little more experience lad by Patrick Kane and their goalie (Crawford) is  alittle better than Tampa's. I expect a series that lasts six games and I like Chicago to win game one 3-2.

10* Chicago +117

10* Chicago +119

The Blackhawks have won 4 of the meetings in Anaheim this year in the regular season and playoffs. I think we see a 3-2 win behind Patrick Kane and goalie Corey Crawford. Tampa Bay was able to go into NY and win 2-0 last night.

10* under 5 goals

These two just played a 7-3 game at Tampa but the game before that at New York ended 2-0 as the Rangers were shutout at home.The opener to the series ended 2-1. The others did reach 8, 11 and 6 goals.

New York's game 7 with Washington was 2-1 in OT and their final game in the series with Pittsburgh was 2-1. Back in 2014 their game 7 with Philadelphia was 2-1 and their game 7 score with Pittsburgh was also 2-1. Their game 6 with Montreal ended 1-0. 

Both Ben Bishop and Henrik Lundquist can be solid defensive goalies. I won't be shocked to see an over. I can live with a 3-2 push but think we have a shot at the under with the pressure of Game 7 to get to the finals.

10* under 5 goals

10* Chicago -140

Tampa Bay is up 3-2 in games and Chicago goes home. The visitors won last night in OT after blowing a late 4-2 lead. I think we see the Blackhawks, led by Patrick Kane jump ahead and win a close one in the range of 3-2. The Lightning have only lost playoff games in OT so far. The teams have been trading wins back and forth and I expect to see a Game 7 later in the week.

10* Chicago -140

New York at Tampa Bay
Tuesday 8pm
10* NY +115

The Rangers are down 3-2 in games and off a 2-0 home loss but scored 5 goals in the two playoff games at Tampa, winning 5-1 and losing 6-5 in OT. NY came back and beat Washington down 3 games to 1. Goalie Henrik Lunquist is 14-3 with a 1.39 goals against when facing elimination. The Rangers led the NHL with 28 regular season road wins. Tampa Bay is a solid home team but I like the desperate NY team as a +115 underdog on Tuesday.

over 5 goals

I think we get at least a push at 3-2. Anaheim is a goal scoring team at home so hopefully we see a 4-2 type of game that gets over 5.

10* over 5

10* NYR +116

These teams are fairly even. The Rangers were #1 in the regular season and made the finals last year before losing to LA. Tampa Bay has a solid offense and goalie Ben Bishop but I think we see NY win by a goal.

NY 3

TB 2

10* Chicago +118

Tampa Bay won last night to even their series 1-1 and I expect Chicago to jump ahead early and win on Tuesday night. They played poorly in losing game one at Anaheim but played well there in regular season action.

Chi 3

Ana 2

10* Chicago +118

10* Tampa Bay +122

TB is down 1-0 in games after falling 2-1 at New York. I think we see Tampa Bay bounce back and win game two as there is no travel involved since they are already in NY.
