New York Rangers Over Colorado Avalanche in 7 Games

The edge for the two leagues come from the New York Rangers in the Eastern Conference, and the Colorado Avalanche in the Western Conference. The edge for the Rangers, they were the best team in the National Hockey League during the regular season, and no one is talking about them winning the cup. In fact, Carolina and Florida have better betting odds than the Rangers to win it all.

Another edge is Madison Square Garden. That is a magical place, especially for big games, and the postseason is always big. The place will be extra rocking this May as the New York Knicks are still alive in the NBA Finals quest. That place is going to be awfully tough to beat the Rangers in.

The third edge – the Rangers are really good on both sides of the puck. The Rangers scored nearly 3.4 per game and allowed just 2.76 per game. The goaltending for the Rangers has been strong all season. In between the pipes for the Rangers looks to be Igor Shesterkin, who made 55 regular season starts. He will be the man the Rangers count on to slow down the opposing offensive teams. On the offensive side, Artemi Panarin and Vincent Trocheck, along with Chris Kreider have been terrific. That is about as good a trio as any in the league.

 

Western Conference Avalanche

The Colorado Avalanche have the edge of being an impressive offensive team. Colorado scored just shy of 3.7 goals per game. They have one of the best power play units, and their best player is as good as any. In fact, Colorado has two guys on the offensive side that can light up the lamp at any time.

Nathan MacKinnon and Mikko Rantanen both went for over 100 points during the regular season. The postseason has been much of the same, as the Avalanche scored 22 goals in the first four games of the postseason.

Colorado will need to go through either Dallas or Vegas in the second round, then may have a matchup against the Edmonton Oilers in the Western Conference Finals. In the end, Colorado is better than any of the teams in the West, in a seven game series.

 

Cup History

For the Colorado Avalanche, they were founded in 1972, and have won three Cup Finals. The latest was the 2021-2022 team. They are just a season removed, with Vegas taking the crown a season ago. Before that, Colorado won it all in 1996 and also in 2001.

 

Stanley Cup Final Result

We like the Rangers to get it done in seven games over the Colorado Avalanche. Colorado is good enough to grab some wins in this series. But, when push comes to shove, the final game comes at Madison Square Garden, and the Rangers get the job done. The Rangers win the cup in 7!
