NHL | Rangers vs Oilers
Play on: Rangers +116 at circa
Friday NHL Free play. My selection is on New York over Edmonton at 9:05 pm et on Friday.
This is undoubtedly a game the Rangers have had circled on their calendar since dropping a 4-3 decision at home against the Oilers back in late November. We won with Edmonton on that afternoon, noting that New York led by a 3-0 score before the Oilers staged a furious third period rally to secure the unlikely victory. Here, I'm confident the revenge-minded Rangers will be able to finish the job, noting that New York enters this contest riding a six-game winning streak, including a perfect 5-0 mark since the All-Star break. The Oilers have dropped each of their last two contests and don't inspire much confidence here at home, where they're just 13-15 on the season. There's a chance we'll see the Rangers start backup goaltender Jaro Halak on Friday but that's not all that concerning as he's actually made the most of his opportunities lately, recording a .933 save percentage over his last four starts. Here, we'll note that New York is 12-3 when playing on the road after allowing four goals or more in their previous game over the last two seasons, as is the case here, outscoring opponents by an average margin of 1.0 goal in that situation. Take New York.
