PREDICTION SCREEN
RAW likes Colorado Avalanche to win.
WHY RAW LIKES IT
- Colorado has the stronger at even strength quality of scoring chances and two-way chance.
- Colorado has the stronger ability to limit good scoring chances.
- Colorado's core offensive and top defensive players are available.
- Pittsburgh's defensive injuries are relevant against Colorado's high-end transition and skill threat.
- Colorado has home continuity rather than travel.
BIGGEST CONCERN
Pittsburgh is also above water at at even strength, so this is not a matchup against a territorially weak opponent.
WHAT COULD GO WRONG
- Pittsburgh has one additional day between games.
BOTTOM LINE
Colorado has the stronger at even strength quality of scoring chances and two-way chance. The concern: Pittsburgh is also above water at at even strength, so this is not a matchup against a territorially weak opponent.
