Moneyline pick
The most anticipated second round series began curiously, with the Knights turning to Robin Lehner after Marc-Andre Fleury started and flourished in Vegas first round series against the Wild. Lehner got absolutely shellacked in the surprise start, allowing seven goals on 37 shots with an expected goals against of 2.63 really highlighting how poor of a decision the Knights made.
