Columbus has been on a late season tear, but it comes to an end here. They head out on the road after a three-game homestand with an offense ranked 17th in scoring and a defense ranked 25th in goals allowed. The Blue Jackets are 73-149 against a team with a winning record. They head to a New York team closing in on the best record in the league. New York is third in the NHL in goals scored and allowed, plus 24-8 against the Eastern Conference. Rick Nash scored his 42nd goal in Saturday's 6-1 rout of New Jersey to pull New York even in points with Anaheim (107) with two games in hand. Nash is starting to heat up again with three goals in his last five contests for the Rangers, who have won three in a row. The Rangers are 19-8 in home games. New York has allowed five total goals the last three games while Columbus is 5-2 UNDER the total after scoring five goals or more in their previous game. Play the New York Rangers and the game UNDER the total.
