Winnipeg Jets vs New York Rangers prediction
The Winnipeg Jets are too good of a team to turn down in the underdog role, and they’re 20-10-3 on the road this season. I wouldn’t talk you off the ledge if looking at the Jets and the more favorable price. However, the Rangers are at home, where they’re 24-8-0 on the season. Only the Avs and Bruins have had more success than the Rangers at home this season. The Rangers have also won 5 of the last 7 games against the Jets. The price is reasonable. Give me the Rangers on their home ice.
