Taking the RANGERS here. Had Ottawa several times over the Bruins, but will hope the fence here in Game 1. I will be the first to say I had NY pegged for dead. A chance to go up 2-0 on the road only to give up the lead with seconds left, then lose in OT. And follow that up with a poor showing at home losing 3-1? But lo and behold back come the Rangers to win 3 straight. With that kind of momentum and solid goal-tending, I will take a stab with them as short road faves. 4* Money Maker NY RANGERS
