Canadiens vs Rangers prediction

The Canadiens have nothing to play for at this stage, and they've allowed 11 goals in their last two games. The Rangers are 27-10-0 on their home ice, and they need to keep winning in hopes of snagging the Presidents' Trophy. The Rangers have won 6 of the last 9 games against the Habs, and they scored 7 goals in the last meeting back in February. I can't get behind the Canadiens in this spot on the road. This should be a comfortable win for the Rangers at home. Give me the PL to shave down the steep juice.
