Minnesota comes off a 2-1 shootout win over Colorado on Tuesday, but the Wild still have lost five of eight and they have scored more than two goals just once in that span. New York has won six of seven against teams that scored two or fewer goals their previous game and the Rangers are 4-1 in the third game of a 3-in-4 days situation. Igor Shesterkin is expected in the crease with a 2.87 goals-against average this season for New York. He has played in hard luck recently stopping 99 of 108 shots with nothing to show for it. Look for that to change tonight. Take the Rangers.
