Red Wings Bounced Back

In the first game of the season, the Red Wings really struggled against the Pittsburgh Penguins, but against the Nashville Predators in the last game, they looked a lot better. The Red Wings defense didn’t give up a goal and hey ended up losing 3-0. For the Red Wings, it was three different goalscorers that paced them. J.T. Compher was the top player, scoring a goal and finishing with four shots on goal. Cam Talbot sure was impressive, stopping all 42 shots that he faced. 

In this game, the defense has to be better though. They can’t allow their goaltending to be peppered with 42 shots and expect to come away with a victory. The Red Wings have to limit those shots. 

Why the Red Wings will Beat the Rangers

• The Rangers have lost four of their last five games at Madison Square Garden.
• The underdogs have won two of the Rangers’ last three games at Madison Square Garden.
• The Red Wings have covered the puck line in each of their last six games as underdogs.
• The Rangers have lost the first period in three of their last four games as home favorites against Atlantic Division opponents.

Rangers Fell Just Short

The Rangers in the first game faced off against the Pittsburgh Penguins in the first game, and they were able to dominate. The Penguins scored six goals and ended up winning. In the last game though, against Utah, they were competitive and picked up a point by getting to overtime, but they ended up losing 6-5. The Rangers scored three goals in the second period, but the defense gave up four goals. 

Adam Fox sure had a strong game, finishing with three assists. Artemi Panarin finished with two assists. Igor Scheserkin started in goal, and he saved 20 of the 26 shots that he faced. If the Rangers’ defense struggles here, this could be a long game. 

Detroit Red Wings vs New York Rangers Prediction

Give me the Red Wings here as underdogs. The Rangers’ defense was a major problem in the last game, and I am not so sure if we can really trust them here. Look for the Red Wings offense to score a couple of goals early in this game and that will be the difference here. The Rangers’ offense is going to struggle here, and Detroit will come out on top. Back the Red Wings on the money line to cash here.
