Edmonton Oilers vs New York Rangers prediction
The Edmonton Oilers are playing well enough to consider in the underdog role, but they’re also on the end of a back to back, and they’re just not the same team on the road as they are at home. The New York Rangers are 10-3-0 on their home ice, and they did shutout the Oilers when these teams met in Edmonton back in October. We’re getting the Rangers at home and cheap juice. Give me the Rangers.
