The Washington Capitals looked like they had this Eastern Conference series wrapped up but the New York Rangers have won each of the previous two meetings to equalize the series 3-3. We'll have a real nail-biter on our hands at MSG tonight, and I would not be surprised to see the Caps record an upset.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Alexander Ovechkin - The Russian superstar has been rather quiet of late, but this is the kind of situations he lives for. He had more game-winning goals (11) than any other player during the regular season and he won the league with his 53 goals, 10 more than Steven Stamkos in second.

2. Previous Meetings - Each game in this series have been decided by one goal.

3. X-Factor - Braden Holty has the best save percentage (.944) of goaltenders with more than five games in this year's post-season.

Selection: This is a play on the Washington Capitals +1.5 (5*)
