The set-up: The Kings enter off a 4-2 loss in Long Island and I think they'll have a difficult time in the Big Apple as well. New York is off a competitive 3-2 home loss to league leading Tampa and I expect it to find a way to get the job done at the end of the night here. LA is now a deplorable 8-17 on the road, averaging only 1.84 goals and allowing 2.96 in those contests. The Rangers are 13-13 at home, averaging 2.92 goals and allowing 2.62 in those contests.

The pick: Take it for what you will as well, but LA is interestingly just 8-22 in its last 30 when its opponent scores two goals or less in its previous contest and only 1-8 in its last nine vs. the Eastern Conference, while New York is 44-19 in its last 63 vs. a team with a win percentage below .400. In my professional opinion, this line could/should easily be much larger. Lay the price.
