Pittsburgh is struggling down the stretch. I would've preferred Philly tank to the wildcard to face off with the Pens in the opening round.

NYR has great goaltending, team defense, and can roll 4 lines.
In Philly, Mason is day-to-day, and their team defense is crap. Their strengths are their offensive firepower and special teams. #3 in PP goals, and their PK has been really good down the stretch. Everything runs through Giroux, but they also boast a total of 7 20-goal scorers, tops in the league.

Brain says NYR in 6; heart says Philly in 7.
