HOUSTON @ TEXAS | 05/22 | 4:05 PM EDT
HOUSTON -172
ANALYSIS: The Astros are 8-2 in their last 10 games while the Rangers are 2-8 in their last 10 games. Both teams have played close games the last two days so both bullpens are tired. However, the Astros have Lance McCullers Jr. starting and he is 3-1 with a 2.70 ERA. Most importantly, he has been pitching deep into games. Jordan Lyles is prone to giving up walks and home runs and I see that continuing with the way the Astros have been swinging the bats.
PITTSBURGH @ N.Y. ISLANDERS | 05/22 | 3:00 PM EDT
N.Y. ISLANDERS -114
ANALYSIS: Been in a bit of an NHL slump recently, including losing on the Islanders at home vs. Pittsburgh in Game 3. Awesome game, though. New York lost just four times in regulation at home during the regular season and I simply have a hard time believing it will lose back-to-back at Nassau Coliseum and fall down 3-1 in this series regardless of whom starts in net here. Pittsburgh was a mediocre road team in the regular season.

MONTREAL @ TORONTO | 05/22 | 7:00 PM EDT
MONTREAL +1.5
ANALYSIS: I thought the Leafs had a decent chance of ending the longest Cup drought in the NHL. I no longer do if John Tavares is done for the playoffs, and he's out indefinitely after a brutal (but accidental) hit to the head in Game 1, which Montreal won 2-1. The Leafs seemed to never recover from losing Tavares in that game and I'm not sure they still have. Toronto may win Game 2, but I'll take the Habs on the puckline.
