NY Rangers vs Detroit Red Wings Prediction
The NY Rangers are the better team and should win this game at home, especially when they’ve won 7 of the last 10 games against the Red Wings. However, I’m looking at the over in this spot. The Red Wings have scored 9 goals through their first two games, and the Rangers have produced 11 goals in their first two games. The last five games between the Red Wings and Rangers are producing an average of 7 goals. Both are hot offenses at the moment, and these meetings recently have been high-scoring. Give me the over.
