Sabres at Rangers: Projected starting goalies

Carter Hutton (1-5-1, 3.20 GAA, .896 SV%) vs. Igor Shesterkin (4-7-1, 2.44 GAA, .917 SV%)

Hutton will be counted on to do some heavy lifting in the next month with Linus Ullmark sidelined due to a lower-body injury. Hutton allowed three goals on 39 shots in a 3-0 loss to the Philadelphia Flyers on home ice Saturday. He looked pretty good in the matinee but just didn’t receive any offensive support.

Shesterkin made a cameo in Sunday’s matinee game against the Boston Bruins, coming on for the injured Alexandar Georgiev. The latter left the game in the first period after a collision with a Boston player, but he was cleared and later returned to the game. Shesterkin hasn’t started since a 4-3 loss against the Flyers Feb. 24.

Sabres at Rangers: Odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Rangers 4, Sabres 1

Money line (ML)

The RANGERS (-160) are rather moderate favorites for this one, but that’s likely because the Sabres are a bit banged up. Buffalo C Jack Eichel returned from a lower-body injury, but he was blanked Sunday.

The Sabres just haven’t had a lot of consistency on offense, and their defense is shaky as well. Buffalo averages just 2.21 goals per game, good for 29th in the league, and it allows 2.95 goals per game to rank 19th. That’s not a good combo for winning.

Against the spread (ATS)

The RANGERS -1.5 (+170) are worth a small-unit wager on the puck line, as they have a respectable offense and should be able to give Hutton fits.

While New York lit the lamp just once in Sunday’s loss to the B’s, it is still averaging 3.4 goals per game across its past five games.

Over/Under (O/U)

The UNDER 6 (-120) is a good play. The Over hit in two of the past three games for the Blueshirts, but the Sabres were blanked in each of their last two games, and the Under is 7-1-1 across the past nine for Buffalo. The Sabres are averaging a paltry 1.56 goals per game during that nine-game span.

A point spread is the number of points projected that separate two teams. A game with a spread will have an underdog (team expected to lose) and a favorite (team expected to win).

A money line bet is on a team to win the game outright (with no point spread) at an adjusted cost. The favorite will have negative odds, while the underdog will have positive odds. The difference here is in the prize or payout, depending on which topic. The terms 'over/under' are synonymous when placing wagers. This type of bet is on the sum of the points scored by both teams in a game. The bookie sets the number for the total then you predict whether they will score less or more points than the set number.
