Las Vegas - After looking at the way Indiana destroyed Charlotte on Tuesday night, think that the underdog is the play this evening. Went ALL IN on our two team teaser when we found out that Domantas Sabonis was gonna start. And BOY, did he start, and FINISH. Domas only scored 14 points but ripped down 21 rebounds.

Carolina lit the red light 179 times and gave up just 136.

In the 'what have you done for me lately' category, Pittsburgh has a YUGE advantage. The Pens have won five of the last six and nine of the last 11 to close the season. The New Yorkers have dropped four of last five and seven of the last 10. The Pittsburglers also have a hefty edge in the season series, winning six of eight. Gimme the Pens for the money.
