Colorado is honestly the better team, though remember Tampa is doing this with the Rangers without point. If they have Point back for Colorado, which they probably will, it's significant enough it could be the difference between who wins the series. They don't need him to win this series. They need him against Colorado.

Part of why I think Tampa's just going to mop up the Rangers even if this gets pulled to 7 tonight is because I think Point doesn't just return, he scores twice while the Rangers are trying to adjust to how much he changes Tampa's offense in his return. I foresee some glaring defensive miscalculations by the Rangers in his first game back.

I actually think it benefits the Rangers a lot if they can pull out game 5 to see him return for their inevitable game 6 blowout because then they'll at least have an idea of what he's going to bring back to the table.
