New York R @ Vancouver

The Rangers arrive at Rogers Arena in slightly better shape: 2-3 over their last five with back-to-back wins, while Vancouver has lost four straight (1-4). Both teams are without their starting goalies — Igor Shesterkin (knee) and Thatcher Demko (hip) — so depth netminders will decide the crease battle, and Vancouver is also missing Joonas Korpisalo. Adam Fox is the top producer in this matchup with 21 points and 19 assists, outpacing Elias Pettersson's 18, while Alexis Lafreniere's nine goals lead Brock Boeser's six. Vancouver gets Filip Chytil back, but New York's form and star power give the visitors the edge.
