Series can go either way. Tough to predict this one. Two of the better teams in the latter half of the season. L.A has most stat advantages

LA hasn't been playing well of late and we had a last game injury to our 3rd line Centre (Zubrus).

If O'Reilly can keep it together on the 3rd line we might be in a good spot in this series. Otherwise I think the depth of the Yotes will crush us
