Rangers vs Blues: Preview

New York is a -238 favorite while St. Louis is a +195 underdog. The over/under is set at six goals.

The Rangers are one of the best teams in the NHL but are coming off a loss to the Oilers in a game New York was blown out.

“We’re leaving our goalies out to dry, in the first period especially,” Rangers center Vincent Trocheck said, via NHL.com. “And we have to come out with a lot more urgency and we have to dig deep here and look at ourselves in the mirror before the next game.”

The Rangers should come out motivated after the lackluster loss and will get out to an early lead.

Shesterkin will also have a much-needed bounce-back performance in this spot as they will limit the Blues offense which is struggling to get the win.

Prediction: Rangers 4, Blues 1.
