One of them will advance. The dreaded tb/ducks ratings disaster final is slowly coming to fruition.
5 units on each.
Caps win 4-2 +515(2x)
Wild win 4-2 +435(2x)
Caps will expose what pit showed can be done to the rangers. The pens were hurt but I have seen this movie before. A giant favorite sneaks by in 5 games that indicated a easy series but that wasnt the case. Wash is healthier and more physical. They got a tough first round out of the way now they could go to the final. Certainly the rangers. Did nothing in round 1 to show me they will not struggle here.
Caps in 6
The hawks just aren't that great anymore. The wild have better d and goaltending. They will choke off the lanes and win the battles around the boards. The hawks have carefully covered up their weaknesses with talent but they aren't the squad that won the cups.
Wild in 6
Calgary can win but my research shows they don't support a bet.
I know its still under at the moment, but taking the O/-116 would've been a much smarter play in my opinion. Chicago has great numbers in the playoffs against the Wild, plus Chicago is also at home.
