MSL has good career playoff numbers. The regular season is over with, and everyone gets a clean slate. Don't see why it's improbable for him not to lead the Rangers in scoring.
 
I predict Pouliot. That line has been playing very well and with Zucc & Brass feeding him the puck, he will continue getting good chances and burying a few.
 
If this team gets far, having Brassard's line (assuming they are effective) will become a better and better advantage as the series' go on. Teams shorten their benches as the playoffs drag, sending that line always filled with energy against fatigued defensemen (or even better, bottom pair defensemen) could get real ugly for the opposition. Seriously, if all 4 lines show up offensively, the Rangers have an excellent chance of going far.

Richards' line worries me though. Hags-Richards-Fast have been impressive with everything except scoring. I hope it's not like last playoffs where the 4th line was just a line of misfits with no complimentary skillsets thrown together.
 
Zucc.

To me, MSL appears to be having a problem with eye-hand coordination.

Pouliott or Brassard. I think the 3rd and 4th lines are key to this series.

Richards right behind.

...I just hope Stepan finally shows up in the playoffs.
 
Nash and St. Louis need to be difference makers if the Rangers are going to make a real run this year.

Somehow I'm thinking that Brassard-Zucc-Pouliot might be our best line.

For the first series it's essential that the Rangers keep Giroux quiet.

Giroux has never had an answer for the Mac/Girardi pairing.
We need to keep guys like Read and Simmonds off the board.
Man, I wish we had a guy who would kick Simmonds ***.

If Zucchini got first line power play minutes instead of the last 20 seconds of the powerplay he would be. I'm hoping MSL turns into a beast these playoffs.
 
I'm calling a repeat performance from Brassgod. Nash will disappear. St. Louis never even showed up in New York.
