It's no surprise we like the way the Penguins are playing right now. They suffered their first setback last game as they were shut out in New York. No worries. We think that will motivate them here and propel them to their eighth playoff win in nine tries. Not that they have needed extra motivation, as they have outscored their playoff opponents by an average score of 3.5 to 1.9. But that shutout loss will provide motivation! That New York win at home doesn't change the fact that the Rangers are 20-26 on the road this year. They are also 9-145 this season after a game in which 3 or fewer goals wer scored. Pittsburgh is 12-2 revenging a road loss this season and we think they get their revenge.
