NHL board for Tuesday, November 3, 2026
St. Louis Blues at New York Rangers
Blues win the game
Moneyline: they just have to win.
Ticket St. Louis moneyline (STL +105)
The Rangers have both Igor Shesterkin and Joonas Korpisalo on injured reserve and lost four of their last five. Plus money on a St. Louis team that won three of its last five is the value.

Preview
The Blues visit Madison Square Garden at 7 p.m. ET. ESPN lists the Rangers 7-7-1 and 6-2-0 at home, and St. Louis 7-6-1 and 3-4-0 on the road. It's on ESPN+ and MSG.
Key factors
The Rangers have lost four straight, per ESPN: 5-4 at Toronto, 7-4 at Ottawa, 6-3 to Los Angeles and 4-1 to Edmonton on Sunday. Both of their top goalies are hurt, with Igor Shesterkin (knee) and Joonas Korpisalo (foot) on injured reserve, and Sean Durzi is out. St. Louis won its last two, 4-1 over Boston and 5-4 at Detroit, after back-to-back shutout losses to Carolina and Montreal. The Blues are missing Colton Parayko (out, upper body) plus Torey Krug, Logan Mailloux, Dillon Dube and Tyler Tucker on injured reserve. Adam Fox leads New York with 17 points and Alexis Lafreniere has nine goals. Dylan Holloway leads St. Louis with 12 points and Jimmy Snuggerud has eight goals. DraftKings via ESPN now has New York -120 and St. Louis +100 with a 5.5 total, down a bit from the +105 on our morning card.
The pick
Our morning card liked St. Louis at +105, and it's now even money. The case is the same: a Rangers team on a four-game skid playing without its top two goalies. The catch is the Blues' blue line is thin too, and they've been shut out twice in their last five. At even money it's still a like, but a slightly worse price than this morning.

How to read a pick
The bold line is the bet in plain words. The ticket line under it is the number from the source, when the source had one.
- Spread
- The points a team gets or gives. "Eagles win by 4+" is the same idea as PHI -3.5: that team has to win by 4 or more. A plus number means the team can lose by fewer than that, or win.
- Moneyline
- Who wins the game. No point spread. The price, like BOS -155, only says how short or long that win was on the snapshot.
- Over/under
- The total. Add both sides together. Over 2.5 goals means 3 or more. Under 2.5 means 2 or fewer.
- Parlay
- Two or more bets tied together. Every part has to hit, or the whole ticket loses. This board does not build a parlay for you.
- Lean, Like, Love
- Lean is a small edge. Like is a clearer read. Love is the strongest call on the board. No pick means we are not calling a side.
