Carolina Hurricanes vs New York Rangers Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 11/04/25

The Carolina Hurricanes are set to take on the New York Rangers on Tuesday night at Madison Square Garden. In what is sure to be an intriguing matchup to watch unfold, we could have a low-scoring game on our hands. The Hurricanes are 3rd in the NHL with 3.46 goals per game, but the Rangers have been great at preventing goals all season. New York’s 2.38 goals per game allowed is the 2nd-best mark in the NHL thanks in large part to the stellar play of Igor Shesterkin. The Russian netminder owns a strong 2.28 goals-against average to go along with a .913 save percentage. Those numbers are even a little inflated after back-to-back rough outings against the Flames and Sharks in which he allowed 11 total goals. Shesterkin has allowed 2 or fewer goals in 7 of his 10 games this season, showing he’s been consistently solid between the pipes.

Despite his strong play, Shesterkin has just 4 wins in 10 games. That’s because he has received little goal support from the teammates. The Rangers started the 2025 season in historic fashion by getting shut out in each of their first 3 home games. Things have gotten somewhat better offensively, but not by much. New York enters this matchup ranking 31st scoring a measly 2.38 goals per game. All in all, look to the under in this Metropolitan division matchup.
