Pittsburgh looks to bounce back from a bruising and heartbreaking 4-3 overtime loss on Wednesday. There were three ties and nine penalties before Josh Bailey scored on a rebound at 4:39 into overtime and Robin Lehner had 41 saves for New York. The Penguins haven't gone down 2-0 in a playoff series since 2013 and they will continue to put the pressure on Lehner, who they had beaten in a 2-1 shootout win the previous meeting in December. Pittsburgh has won 11 of its last 15 conference quarterfinals games and the Penguins have won five of their last seven overall with one day of rest. Also, the OVER is 6-3-1 in the Penguins' last 10 conference quarterfinal games. Pittsburgh goalie Matt Murray is 29-14-7 with a 2.71 goals-against average and .918 save percentage. Pittsburgh evens the series, so take the Penguins for today's Max Play and also back the OVER.
