As they should be; COL is up 3-2 and have the easiest path to the final where they are now guaranteed home ice if they make it.
If either TBL or COL makes the final against a different opponent then they are the prohibitive favourite.
TBL vs. COL is pretty close to a tossup; I'd favour TBL if Point is back, coin flip if he isn't.
But the bet really boils down to:
TBL or NYR or STL
vs.
COL or CAR or EDM or CGY
Which I think is pretty much a coin flip...though it's kinda funny that the 3 homegrown teams probably have the 4 best goalies remaining (really the 2 best; Husso/Binnington/Kuemper/Markstrom are pretty darn close at this point overall)
