Potential Eastern Conference Finals preview and Original Six matchup; we hit on a +140 home dog on Tuesday (Calgary), so let's try again with the Blueshirts. I understand why Toronto is favored, but the Rangers are excellent at home and pretty healthy other than relatively disappointing former No. 1 overall pick Alexis Lafreniere. Fellow wingers Barclay Goodrow and Dryden Hunt should be available after each missed multiple games. Toronto's Auston Matthews can tie an NHL record by scoring in his 11th straight road game, but the Leafs are down a few guys due to injury/protocol. They obviously still can win, but this is great value as the Rangers are 5-2-0 in the past seven meetings.

Rangers are 10-3-2 at home this season while the Leafs are 10-5-2 on the road. Leafs are 4-2 straight up since the break and they are just 2-2 straight up on their current road trip. Rangers return home after a long West Coast road trip, but they had 4 days before tonight’s game so they should be rested. Igor Shesterkin is back in net for the Rangers and they should only be missing Alex Lafrenniere. Maple Leafs should still be missing a couple key players, I like the value in the home dog.
