Rangers vs Stars Prediction

The Rangers have to prove they can win at home, as they’ve been an easy team to bet on this season. The Rangers are road warriors, but that success hasn’t been able to translate to their home ice. The Stars are enjoying a ridiculous stretch right now, and you can argue they’ve played their best hockey overall on the road. I’m not stepping in front of the Stars in their current form, especially for a Rangers team that hasn’t been able to figure it out at MSG. Give me the Stars and the incredibly low price.
