Pittsburgh is strong all around, third in the NHL in goals scored, sixth in goals allowed and fifth in penalty killing. They are also getting healthy, with Matt Murray back at practice along with top goalie Marc-Andre Fleury (concussion). The Penguins have great defense, strong backup goalies, and speed on offense. Phil Kessel had two goals Saturday after getting one assist on Patric Hornqvist's Game 1 hat trick. The right wing has 12 points over his last 10 meetings with the Rangers, including five in the past three. Star Sidney Crosby has 37 points in 36 overall games at Madison Square Garden, including four goals and two assists in the past four. Pittsburgh is on a 15-3 run, including 8-2 on the road. New York has injury problems, with captain Ryan McDonagh still out and star goalie Henrik Lundqvist dealing with an eye injury. The Rangers are #15 in the NHL in goals allowed, #14 on the power play and just #26 in penalty killing. Back the road team Pittsburgh.
