New York Rangers vs. Winnipeg Jets Prediction
I’m on the Rangers here. Both of these teams could use a win, but I’m still of the belief that the Rangers are a much better team than their record would indicate. I know the Jets have been one of the NHL’s best this season, especially at home, but the road team has won the last four meetings between these two teams and I think New York could potentially catch the Jets here. Give me the New York Rangers and the plus money.
