Calgary Flames vs. New York Rangers Prediction

I’m on the Rangers here. I don’t love New York at home this year, but it’s the lesser of two evils with both teams on a back-to-back with travel for this game. The Flames have not done well on the road this season and just got cranked by Washington less than 24 hours ago. I think the Rangers get it done in this one so give me New York at home.
