The set-up: Locked in a three way fight for second spot in the Atlantic with Montreal and Boston, and off a big win over the Habs just last night, I think the Leafs carry that momentum over today in this favorable matchup in The Big Apple. Leafs' goaltender Frederick Anderson has won three straight over New York and overall he's 5-2-1 with a 2.90 GAA vs. the Rangers. New York comes in off a deflating 3-0 loss at home to Carolina on Friday and I have a hard time seeing the Rangers' offense keeping pace with the high-flying Leafs tonight. Rangers' goaltender Henrik Lundqvist has lost three straight.

The pick: Take it for what you will as well, but New York is just 5-16 in its last 21 vs. teams with a winning percentage above .600, Toronto is 15-6 in its last 21 vs. clubs with a sub .500 record (also 5-2 in their last seven in New York.) Lay the price, expect a rout.
