Schule's NHL BEAST of the EAST - *EARLY START*
(NHL) Washington vs. NY Rangers, 04/30/2015 3:30 PM, Score: 2 - 1
Money Line: -160.00 NY Rangers (Home)
Result: Loss
This is an 8* play on the NYR.

The Rangers had very little trouble with Pittsburgh in the first round, and they face the Washington Capitals in round 2. New York finished with the best record in the NHL this season, and they appear to be primed to make a return to the Stanley Cup Finals. Washington had it's hands full in the first round, needing seven games to get past the Isles. The Capitals are a tough team, but they don't have quite as many weapons as the Rangers do. New York dominated the season series winning four of five, and the Caps have lost eight of their last 11 visits to MSG. Both teams have improved since last year, but I think the Rangers are still the better team, and home ice could prove to be the difference here in Game 1, and throughout the series.

Take NYR.
