This one will definitely be close. I voted Boston in 7 but that is really just a tossup.

Boston in 7. Think this could go either way.

A lot of this series depends on health for Washington. All of Ovechkin, Oshie, Backstrom, Carlson, Kuznetsov and Samsonov are all banged up/covid list, so who knows what the lineup will be come Saturday. It looks like a lot of those guys are going to be ready, but it's definitely worrisome considering how off and on those injuries have been the last few weeks (Schultz and Wilson have also been in and out of the lineup recently).

Assuming the Caps are at 100%, this is going at least six games. I'd probably put money on the Bruins since they're playing better hockey right now and Taylor Hall has really meshed with that group. Also no telling how our goaltending tandem is going to hold up, so most signs point to Boston here. It seems the best shot for the Caps is to expose their relatively weak defense group.

Rask absolutely hates going up against the Capitals and his numbers against them are not great

but still Washington in 7
