New York Rangers (-182) @ New Jersey Devils (+150), 7 pm EDT

Following a heartbreaking 3-2 loss in OT against the New York Islanders Sunday night, the New York Rangers will look to get back on track Tuesday night at the expense of the New Jersey Devils, who are 3-7 in their last ten games. The Rangers are 5-5 in their last ten with recent victories over the Pittsburgh Penguins and Washington Capitals. In the last two meetings between the Rangers and Devils, New York has dominated both contests by three or more goals. Although the Moneyline is a bit steep here at -182, it's a safe bet based on how well the Rangers are playing right now.

PICK: New York Rangers Moneyline (-182)

Calgary Flames (+200) @ Toronto Maple Leafs (-250), 7:30 pm EDT

The Toronto Maple Leafs are the full package. With a record of 28-10-3, they're locked in a tight race for the top spot in the North with the Winnipeg Jets and look to be in great form leading into the home-stretch of the regular season. Toronto has won seven in a row and will look to continue its dominance Tuesday evening against the dwindling Calgary Flames who are 1-4 in their last five games. In the last two meetings between the Maple Leafs and the Flames, Toronto won by two goals on both occasions. Take the Puck Line here.

PICK: Toronto Maple Leafs -1.5 (-105)
