Key match-up nuggets for tonight …
- Welcome to New York Vlad Tarasenko, as he should make his debut skating with Zibs and Panarin. I often say that NHL trades usually have a dramatic UP or DOWN effect on teams and the buzz around this one definitely feels like it’s an UP arrow move.
- All games have 6+ or higher totals with 2+ home dogs.
