A 7-1-3 streak has come on the heels of a dreadful 5-16 run that plummeted the Rangers right out of the playoff picture. The Rangers didn't play poorly in Sunday's 5-4 loss to the Avalanche. In fact, they were tying a season high with 37 shots on goal. However, a goal with 15 seconds left in the third period was handing New York a regulation time loss for the first time since January 4.
Carolina vs New York Rangers NHL Picks
Carolina is already 2-0 SU against the Rangers this season. In fact, the Hurricanes were the last visiting team to win at MSG prior to Colorado's victory on Sunday.
Carolina will be looking to extend its two-game win streak at MSG, as well as a two-game win streak against the Rangers this season. Take the Hurricanes to win as road favorites in the Tuesday NHL picks.
