I'm still not sure if Hitch planned to use both goalies in the playoffs had Halak not gone down so early.
I'd lean toward the Rangers winning, but I think it would be a 7 game series, and with Halak it could go either way. Especially with the Rangers having Nash now, and the Blues possibly getting Tarasenko in the NHL.

100% agree with you,Halak is the wild card...he can steal you games just by himself. He stole a couple for St-Louis last year, he always outperform his opponent in a big match situation.
