PREDICTION SCREEN
RAW likes New York Rangers +1.5 puck line.
WHY RAW LIKES IT
- Rangers' strong early defensive results and penalty kill.
- Columbus' poor early goal prevention and depleted blue line.
- Productive Rangers top-end scorers and power-play players.
- The +1.5 threshold permits either a Rangers win or one-goal loss.
BIGGEST CONCERN
Columbus owns the better early at even strength quality of scoring chances and shots created.
WHAT COULD GO WRONG
- Garand is a short track record rookie expected to start because Shesterkin and Korpisalo are unavailable.
- he was pulled in his last appearance.
- Columbus has an extra two days between games and home ice.
- Neither starter was officially confirmed in the official NHL preview.
BOTTOM LINE
Rangers' strong early defensive results and penalty kill. The concern: Columbus owns the better early at even strength quality of scoring chances and shots created.
