Arizona won the only meeting this season, 4-3, in overtime at New York, and now the Rangers travel to Arizona having lost five of their last seven games, including the last two against Pittsburgh and Colorado. The Avalanche routed the Rangers on Friday for its first win since Dec. 19 while Alexander Georgiev allowed all six goals. New York has given up 13 goals its last two games, and it has lost four straight after allowing at least five goals its previous game. Henrik Lundqvist probably will be back in goal for the Rangers, but he allowed six goals against the Penguins on Wednesday, and he owns a 2.94 goals-against average with a .911 save percentage. Arizona goalie Darcy Kuemper had 33 saves in a 3-2 loss to New Jersey on Friday, and he has a 2.83 GAA and .911 save percentage. The Rangers gave up 10 power-play opportunities to Colorado on Friday with Colorado scoring three times in that situation. Play the Coyotes on the puckline.
