Washington Capitals vs. New York Rangers: Preview
The New York Rangers will look to end their three-game road trip on a high note as they take on the Washington Capitals at Capital One Arena. The Rangers (44-21-11) have struggled to find the back of the net on this trip, totaling just three goals in two games. They'll look to rebound against a Capitals team fighting to stay alive in the playoff race.
With just six regular-season games remaining, the Capitals (34-33-9) are still mathematically alive for a wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference, but they need to start winning games quickly. They sit seven points behind the Pittsburgh Penguins for the final playoff spot in the East and have won just once in their last seven games.
The Washington Capitals won the first two meetings between these teams, but the Rangers got revenge with a 5-3 win on March 14. New York Rangers will rely on goaltender Igor Shesterkin, who was solid in March, going 8-3-0 with a 2.08 GAA and .932 SV% in 11 starts. Meanwhile, the Washington Capitals will turn to Darcy Kuemper, who has struggled recently, going winless in his last three starts.
The Rangers are favored at -130 on the money line and -1.5 on the puck line at +190, while the Capitals are underdogs at +110 on the money line and +1.5 on the puck line at -250. The total is set at 6.5, with the under being the lean at -110.
