What's going to cure New York's early-season slump that both of its hockey teams seem to be in? The Big Apple will try to stop the big bleeding on a long trip to British Columbia, when the New York Rangers visit the Vancouver Canucks for a faceoff at 10 p.m. EST this Tuesday night.
For the Rangers, the issue isn't necessarily goaltending, though a few better performances from Igor Shesterkin would be a good place to start. The netminder allowed five goals from Calgary on 30 Flames shots in Sunday's 5-1 defeat. Sitting at just 3-5-2, the Rangers have dropped six of their last seven contests.
Vancouver has only two victories in four home games since the 2025-26 season began. However, the Canadian club is happy to skate on home ice after taking an extended road trip of its own, as evidenced by Sunday's 4-3 OT win over Edmonton in which unheralded RW Kiefer Sherwood scored two tallies.

New York Rangers vs Vancouver Canucks Predictions and Picks
Tuesday's tight odds are a product of "resistible" forces meeting "movable" objects. Las Vegas doesn't want to rate New York too highly until the Rangers wake up. Conversely, the Canucks are dealing with injuries up the middle and on defense. Quinn Hughes is day-to-day alongside two other Vancouver blue liners. With the Rangers healthy in comparison, oddsmakers don't love the Canucks either.
New York does have to cope with centerman Vincent Trocheck's recent injury, in addition to the fact that forwards Artemi Panarin and J.T. Miller have only combined for four goals in 10 games. Lou Orlando of Forever Blue Shirts says that Rangers head coach Mike Sullivan "conceded he's trying to create more balance" in the team's inconsistent scoring lines by switching up the combinations in practice and in games. That's a polite way of saying that the Rangers need someone to step up and score goals.
Don't pick the Canucks' puck line. It's too expensive, and if the Rangers win, they're likely to turn giddy going after empty-net goals at the finish. It's better to wager that the Canucks will win straight-up.
