San Jose at New York

San Jose is wrapping up its four-game East Coast trip playing great hockey, on a 4-1 run, including 3-1 on the road. San Jose is eighth in the NHL in goals scored, tops in goals allowed, and in penalty killing. This is a deep, versatile team with Joe Pavelski, Joe Thornton, and Patrick Marleau all clicking. The versatile Sharks have 11 players with multiple points. They got beat the last game, but the Sharks are 4-0 following a loss of three or more goals. The Sharks have outscored their opponents 17-8 overall. They take on a struggling New York Rangers squad that has lost three in a row, including as -175 at home to Winnipeg, a 4-1 defeat. They had to play last night and lost 2-1 to New Jersey, the Devils' first win. New York is just 18th in goals scored, 24th on the power play, and 13th in goals scored. The Rangers failed on two power-play opportunities Sunday and are 1-for-16 on the season. The Rangers are also 1-5 in their last six home games, so grab the rested dog. Play San Jose.
