Total Smash NHL 8*
(NHL) NY Rangers vs. New Jersey,
Total: 6.00 | -108.00 Under
Result: Loss
ASA PLAY ON 8* UNDER 6 in New Jersey vs NY Rangers @ 1 PM ET - Devils likely to go with Vanecek between the pipes with this one and he has been solid of late. Rangers expected to go with Shesterkin here and he is rounding back into top form too. This is a key battle in the Metropolitan Division between a pair of rivals and there is not expected to be a lot of open ice in this one either as a result. That said, high-quality scoring chances are going to be tough to come by and this very likely turns into a low-scoring goaltenders duel. Shesterkin on a 7-2-1 run with a .930 save % and a 1.98 GAA in his last 10 starts. Vanecek is 14-5-2 this season with a 2.31 GAA and has allowed only 5 goals in his last 3 starts. Note that Shesterkin did allow 3 goals in most recent start but 2 of those were deflections/bad bounces. He looked strong and more of the same expected here. It all adds up to a solid play on the Under 6 in this one.
