The Rangers finally got their long-awaited first home win, 6-3, against Nashville on Monday. Now the Rangers take to the road, and that hasn't been a bad thing for this group. New York is 7-2 away from home this season, riding a five-game road win streak. The Rangers not only go into Tampa Bay with confidence, but are reinforced with the return of center Vincent Trocheck from an upper-body injury that caused him to miss 14 games. The underdog Rangers and the UNDER are the way to look. Two outstanding goalies, Igor Shesterkin and Andrei Vasilevskiy, are projected to be in net. Shesterkin has a 2.46 goals-against average and a .909 save percentage through 13 starts. Vasilevskiy has rebounded after a slow start to post a 2.64 GAA and .908 save percentage. The Rangers yield the fourth-fewest goals per game at 2.5. The Lightning surrender the eighth-fewest goals per game and rank first in penalty kills. Take the Rangers and the UNDER.
