Things went sideways for the Blackhawks at the end of their recent trip to the West Coast. Outscored 13-1 across the last two games, heavy losses vs. the Kings and Ducks, the defense is now under the microscope, including G Spencer Knight, who had a difficult time vs. the Kings at Crypto.com when stopping only 26 of 32 shots. Knight's form the past couple of weeks has been a bit of a worry, as Chicago has lost in five of his last seven starts. Meanwhile, the Rangers are back where they want to be, on the road, where they're 12-4-1 this season (Igor Shesterkin 9-3-0 in goal away). Now, why can't they play the same way at MSG? Play Rangers on the Puck Line.
A rare total play Wednesday as Chicago isn't scoring much of late with just six goals in the past four games. But netminder Spencer Knight has a 2.43 home GAA. The Rangers are among the worst offensive team in the NHL at 2.65 goals per game. Netminder Igor Shesterkin has allowed three or fewer goals in seven straight overall and has been better on the road with a 2.29 GAA. The Rangers' past five overall have all landed Under this total. It's the only 6.5 on our board and juiced, so it may flip soon.
