Way too much value here IMO...all because of Detroit's dominance in the first 2 games....BUT, the Pens have been unbeatable at home, and will be a much different team. The Pens have not lost at home in the playoffs, and most games haven't even been close. In fact, the Pens haven't lost at home since February! Crazy.
As for the Wings...yes they've looked good, but this playoff season they have jumped out 2-0 at home in each of the 3 earlier series, but then let both the Preds and Stars back in the series with the Preds winning their games 3&4 at home, and Dallas winning games 4&5 (i'll throw out the Avs as they were hurt, injured and done at the series opener). This is a huge trend IMO, showing Detroit can let their opponents back into the series, and what a better team to take advantage than one of the top home teams in the league, and a team that hasn't lost in the igloo since around Valentine's day!?!
And talk about 2 of the top 5 players in the league, Crosby and Malkin being "due".
They won't be shutout for the 3rd game in a row...especially in Pittsburgh.
