Ottawa at New York

Ottawa heads out on the road with a weak offense, #22 in goals scored and #23 on the power play. The defense has allowed 11 goals the last four games, and the Senators are 2-6 playing on two days of rest. The New York Rangers are home and in must-win mode, down 2-0. They come off a 6-5 double OT loss at Ottawa, their second one-goal loss of this series. The Rangers outshot Ottawa 48-34 and out-hit them 43-38 in Game 2. Ottawa had three straight power-play chances early, but it didn't even manage a shot on goal in that time. New York is fourth in the NHL in goals scored, #10 on the power play, and #12 in goals allowed. The Rangers are 14-6 after allowing five goals or more in their previous game. Ottawa has never swept a four-game playoff series, and the home team has won four in a row when these teams clash. Play the New York Rangers.
