New York at Anaheim

The Rangers were out of the gate very quickly, but have slowed down recently. They are a sub .500 team over the last 13 games and the main reason is the defense and goaltending that was stopping teams has now fallen back. In their first 23 games, the Rangers were holding opponents to just under two goals a game, but in the last 13, that number has increased to 3.3 a game, or well over a goal per game more. The difference has been even more significant on the road as they are allowing 4.17 in their last six. Anaheim has been an offensive force of late at home, scoring four or more in five of their last six. This one has a good chance to be much higher scoring than the low total indicates, so I'm playing this one to go OVER.
