Washington enters the playoffs 4-1-0 in their last 5 games getting the last playoff spot and now face the Presidents trophy winning New York Rangers.

New York Rangers enters the playoffs having won 5 of their last 7 games and are looking to go far in the playoffs this season after a great regular season.

I don’t see this series being very close. If Washington is going to compete I think its going to happen in the games in Washington. I will take the home favorites at home on the puckline in this one.

Pick: New York Rangers -1.5
