The New York Rangers are fifth in the NHL in goals scored, 10th on the power play, and fourth in goals allowed. Mats Zuccarello netted his second goal of the game with 5:56 left, snapping a tie and sending the New York Rangers to a 5-4 victory over Toronto Tuesday night. The Rangers are 11-4 in their last 15 road games, plus 36-15 against a team with a losing record. New York leans on that defense on the road, on an 8-3-3 run UNDER the total plus 22-10-7 UNDER against the Central Division. Struggling Colorado is 25th in goals scored and 22nd in goals allowed. The Avalanche continue to struggle on special teams, going 0 for 27 on the power-play over their last nine games while giving up seven power-play goals on 22 chances. The Avalanche is 9-23 against a team with a winning record and 11-29 playing on three or more days rest. And that weak offense is why Colorado is 13-3 UNDER the total against a team with a winning record. Play the New York Rangers and the game UNDER the total.
