Welcome to the NHL's final four, where one road win could go a long way.

The Rangers host the Lightning on Saturday in the opener of the Eastern Conference finals. The Ducks put their perfect postseason home record on the line Sunday in Game 1 against the Blackhawks, who also are 5-0 at home in the postseason.
