Fans or no fans the action is on the ice.
I think the young guns have a clear advantage in the early days. They can play with a bit of rust and shake it off more easily. But when the older lions get moving, get adapted their muscle memory and well honed aggression will kick in.
Varlamov and Greissy have better stats but the Rags have the playoff experience. Lundy may get in trouble early on and then get it together.
My streaming service is not currently carrying matches so I may need to subscribe to NHL.com
