Rangers Look For Yet Another Road Win Sunday

A 3-0 win over the Kings last night brought the Rangers’ straight up road record to an impressive 27-10 number that leads the league by a wide margin. They’ll get a chance to extend that standing this evening when they take on the Ducks in Game 2 of their three-game California road trip.

SHARK BITES
  • The Rangers are 13-7 SU in the 2nd half of their last 20 back-to-backs.
  • The Ducks are 0-5 SU and have averaged just 1.4 goals in their last 5 games against the Rangers.
  • Henrik Lundqvist (30-17-2, .913 save percentage) will be making his 1st start since March 7.

New York will be happy to have Handsome Hank back in the fold for this one. When the Rangers hosted the Ducks back in January, King Henrik stopped 43 of Anaheim’s 44 shots in a 4-1 win. The Ducks have won six of their last seven games now, averaging 33.1 shots per game in March so if there’s any rust for Lundy – Anaheim will expose it.

For a team that’s so good on the road, you’re getting excellent value on the Rangers tonight. They opened as a +127 underdog a night after absolutely handling the Kings at the Staples Center and should give the Ducks a good battle as they seek to gain ground on the Pens, Blue Jackets and Capitals.

Both clubs are averaging a team save percentage this month over .931 so with a total of 5.5 tonight you can probably go ahead and book an UNDER.
