New York at Arizona

This is a long road trip for the N.Y. Rangers, losing two of the last three games. They were a -155 favorite at home to Minnesota and lost 7-4. New York has depth concerns, with right winger Pavel Buchnevich (back) staying home in New York. Right winger Rick Nash (groin) did not practice Wednesday but will travel with the team and center Mika Zibanejad (broken fibula) is out until mid-January. The Rangers are ninth in the NHL in goals allowed and penalty killing, 29-14-8 UNDER the total on the road against a team with a home winning percentage of less than .400. Arizona is home preferring a slow pace, on a 33-14-5 run UNDER the total, including 31-15-5 UNDER when playing on one day of rest. This is the fifth straight home game for Arizona and the home team is 10-3 when these teams clash. Play Arizona and the UNDER.
