The set-up: San Jose destroyed St. Louis 6-3 in Game 1 and I think it'll find a way to get the job done in Game 2 as well. The Sharks average 3.70 GPG at home and rookie goaltender Jordan Binnington, who to this point has pretty much carried the Blues to this point, looked very average in the loss. It's hard to say too many negative things about Binnington, but there's no question that he's in unchartered territory at the moment. Sharks' goaltender Martin Jones looked decent though, stopping 28 of 31 shots to improve to 9-5 in the playoffs. San Jose is 32-18 at home so far this season.

The pick: Take it for what you will as well, but the Sharks are 53-38 (+4.7 units) the last two years after a victory by two goals or more. I think San Jose's experience and home ice advantage proves to be too much for St. Louis again in Game 2. Lay the price.
