Adam Fox More Than 23.0 Minutes Time On Ice
The Rangers survived Game 1 with a 4-3 win. Out of the gate, they were aggressive to the net and were fantastic on special teams. As the game continued, you saw them play a little more passively, and that's a mistake against the Hurricanes. This is still one of the better defensive teams in the playoffs, and we saw that as they prevented high-danger shots and went 5-for-5 on the penalty kill. That's why we will see a ton of ice time for Fox because this will be a tighter game than the last one, and he is an integral part of the special teams.
Jake Oettinger More Than 27.5 Saves
The Avalanches easily took care of the Jets in five games. That's all thanks to the explosive offense that embarrassed Vezina Trophy favorite Connor Hellebuyck, who allowed 5.28 goals per game and a .870 save percentage during the series. Oettinger was great during the Vegas series, but how is this blue line going to do against Colorado? The over is a great bet because the Avs could easily have over 30 shots as they averaged 37.5 shots per game against Winnipeg.
