The New York Rangers will try to bounce back from a devastating overtime loss to the Carolina Hurricanes in Game 1. The New York Rangers have been led all season by goaltender Igor Shesterkin. He is 4-3-0 with 3.42 goals allowed a game and .911 save percentage in the playoffs. He gave up two goals on 26 shots in Game 1. Backup goaltender Antti Raanta has played well as a starter, He allowed one goal on 28 shots in Game 1. In the playoffs, he has allowed 13 goals. The New York Rangers missed an open goal that would have assured them a win in Game 1. against this Carolina Hurricanes offense. I do not believe in the backup goalie The Rangers are 35-17 in their previous 52 games against the Hurricanes and I look for Shesterkin to be the difference in this one.

Play on the Rangers. This is a 6* play.
