This will be the second Game 7 for the Rangers in this playoffs. New York was able to knock off the Philadelphia Flyers in the opening round this post season and now is just one win away from advancing again. Pittsburgh won three straight games in this series to take a 3-1 advantage over the Rangers but have dropped two straight games, scoring one goal in both games.
The Rangers were one of the best road teams in the league this season and they have the better overall goalie in this matchup tonight with Henrik Lundqvist. New York can knock out one of the Stanley Cup's biggest contenders tonight if they can beat the Penguins. New York has been in this position before this post season and after winning back-to-back elimination games in this series.
Martin St. Louis has been playing with a heavy heart after the death of his mother. He scored a goal in Game 6 to help his team avoid elimination. He's been getting the support from his teammates and they are using the hardship to help them emotionally on the ice.
Pittsburgh will look to Sidney Crosby to score tonight. Crosby has just one tally in 12 playoff games to this point, but he has assisted on eight Pittsburgh goals. The power play for the Pens hasn't been the best either, going 1-of-19 recently.
The Penguins are just 2-6 at home in Game 7s in franchise history. Pittsburgh lost to Montreal in 2010 and Tampa Bay in 2011 in Game 7 situations at home.
Tonight we like the Rangers because of Lundqvist. He's 4-1 in Game 7 appearances and sports a record of 9-2 with a 1.35 goals-against average when the Rangers are facing elimination. New York has saved themselves from ending their season and tonight they'll get a win over the Penguins.
