Goals have followed both teams of late. The Calgary Flames have gone Over in three straight games, while four in a row have gone Over the number for the New York Rangers.

With both teams fatigued, my Flames vs. Rangers predictions expect the goals to continue flowing in this matchup.

Let’s dive into my NHL picks for Tuesday, March 10.

Flames vs Rangers prediction

Flames vs Rangers best bet: Over 5.5 (-130)

Both teams were in action on Monday night and are set to play their third game in four days. That could mean fatigue, missed assignments, and sloppier defensive play than usual. It also means New York Rangers netminder Igor Shesterkin will likely be unavailable.

Shesterkin is one of the best in the league and has still managed a .913 SV% through 39 starts, while backup goalie Jonathan Quick ranks 54th among 56 netminders in Goals Saved Above Expected (-11.32) since December 31.

The Calgary Flames should get to him this evening.
