Take #20 Minnesota Wild over New York Rangers
(NHL) NY Rangers vs. Minnesota,
Money Line: -113.00 Minnesota (Home)
Result: Win
The New York Rangers will try to extend their NHL-best winning streak to seven games in a row when they visit the Minnesota Wild on Saturday evening in St. Paul, Minn. New York is coming off a 2-1 win over the Carolina Hurricanes on Thursday. The Rangers have raced to an 8-2-0 start, which represents their second-best start after 10 games in franchise history. Rangers defenseman Jacob Trouba credited head coach Peter Laviolette and the rest of the team's coaching staff for setting the players up for success. Sounds all peachy for a Ranger win right? We actually think the Rangers have a letdown and Minnesota has lost four straight games and they are not that bad, especially given the fact they are favored here, and we think they bounce back and get the win.
