The line is out of whack here because the Rangers are best served losing in this game due to potential playoff seedings. So I'm expecting a close-checking, conservative game for New York, which will be missing its leading points scorer and No. 2 goal scorer, right winger Mats Zuccarello with a lower-body injury. Red Wings goalie Jimmy Howard has a 1.73 GAA in eight games against the Rangers.
Rangers goalie Henrik Lundqvist has a 0.78 GAA in his last five home games against the Red Wings. He'll look to rebound after a bad game on Thursday - if he gets the starting call.
This is a huge game for the Red Wings in their quest to make the postseason for the 26th straight year. So they'll likely be conservative on the road. An early start time, too, usually means less scoring. This has been an under series, too. The under is 8-1-2 the past 11 times these teams have met.
