The veteran Penguins are talented and confident after stealing Game 1, 4-3, in triple OT. The pressure is on the Rangers now, who haven't been in the playoffs since 2017. Pittsburgh has few weaknesses ranked #11 in goals scored, sixth in shots on goal, while the defense is fifth in goals surrendered, third in save percentage. The Penguins 97-54 after allowing 3 or more goals in two consecutive contests. New York's offense was #16 in goals scored, #28 in shots on goal during the regular season. The Rangers have lost four of five and are 44-54 at home after losing their previous game in overtime. The wagering value is on the visitors to win the game or lose by one goal. Play Pittsburgh on the puck line.
