The NHL has a full slate of game sevens scheduled for Wednesday night, most of which include some high profile audiences. Which teams will move on and what does the future hold for these teams that do advance.
Philadelphia Flyers vs. New York Rangers: This series has been back and forth and has been a lot closer than the scores of the games would imply. The Rangers were in the driver's seat until Tuesday night when the Flyers came out on fire and put on the first dominant performance of the series, winning 5-2. This couldn't have come at a better time for the Flyers as they carry all the momentum back to New York. The Rangers need to show the spark the Flyers showed in game six early in game seven or they could be going home.
Prediction: 3-1 Philadelphia Flyers
Minnesota Wild vs. Colorado Avalanche: The advantage goes to the Avs as they have home ice in a series where each game has been won by the home team, but after the ice advantage, this series is wide open. Minnesota has the talent and experience to finish off the upset and the Avs have the overall skill and coaching to carry onto the next round. Each game has been incredibly close, but something has to give.
Prediction: 3-2 Colorado Avalanche
Los Angeles Kings vs. San Jose Sharks: The Sharks have opened the flood gates and let in the monster that is the Kings. Jonathan Quick hasn't been his normal elite self, but he lives for moments like this. The Sharks are searching for answers and don’t know who will play in net while the Kings have championship pedigree and savvy veterans. I don’t think this one will be close.
Prediction: 2-0 Los Angeles Kings
