Rick DiPietro is back but unfortunately he can't score. New York has been in an offensive drought the past two games. We look for Vancouver to relax enough to get surprised here. New York has scored 4+ goals four times in their last eight games so they are capable of scoring here. And Vancouver's offense is capable of putting up a stinker. Vancouver may look past New York here, and they've had a layoff which won't help. The Canucks are just 2-8 the past two seasons at home when playing with 3+ days rest. Ted Nolan is 10-3 coming off 2+ straight road losses. We'll take New York with the big payoff.
