Rangers vs Senators Prediction
The Rangers have yet to prove they can get it done on the road the way they have at home. The defense is also slipping a bit. The Senators have played their best hockey at home, and they have these offensive bursts that have real potential. The Senators have won 3 of the last 4 games against the Rangers as well. The price is cheap. Give me the Senators on their home ice, as right now it feels like we fade the Rangers on the road and back them at home.
