NHL Playoffs Odds: Rangers-Penguins Game 6 prediction, odds and pick

The New York Rangers are trying to win Game 6 against the Pittsburgh Penguins. The Rangers won the previous two games against Pittsburgh 3-1. They won 5-3 at Madison Square Garden. They are attempting to come back from a 3,1 series deficit for the third time in franchise history. NHL odds series continues with a Rangers-Penguins Game Six prediction and pick.

Rangers need to improve in the faceoff circle and block more shots in front of Shesterkin to cover the spread. They need Artemi Panarin, Mika Zibanejad, Trouba, Strome, Copp and Lafreniere to score more goals. Sheerkin needs to perform better. He didn't last in either game in Pittsburgh. The Rangers will cover if they do better on the draw and if the team blocks more in-front of the goalie.

Pittsburgh lost the hit battle in Game 5. The Penguins did not convert on their three power-play chances. They need to take away New York's chances and not allow them to get loose near the net. Louis Domingue has allowed 15 goals in his four starts and has a .873 save percentage. The game is a must-win for the Penguins.

Rangers-Penguins Game 6 is an elimination game for New York. The game will be close, but the Rangers will win it and send the game back to Madison Square Garden for a deciding seventh game.
