Penguins vs Rangers Picks & Props
PIT vs NYR Picks
NHL Picks
Koivunen is riding shotgun alongside Sidney Crosby to start the season, and the Finn recorded two or more shots in five of eight NHL games last spring. With the Rangers allowing the ninth-most shot attempts per 60 minutes at five-on-five and sixth-most shots per game last year, I like Koivunen to pick up a pair of shots in the season opener.
New York allowed the ninth-most shot attempts per 60 minutes at five-on-five and the sixth-most shots per game last season, so I'm expecting enough shot volume for Shesterkin to clear this saves total tonight. Plus, he sports a career .926 save percentage and 2.07 GAA against the Pens.
Both teams finished last season in disappointing fashion, and it was partly because they couldn't keep the puck out of their net. The Pens will rely on Tristan Jarry and Arturs Silvos, and that just doesn't cut it at this level. I expect this game to be wide open and one that creeps over the 5.5 goal mark.
