New York at Philadelphia

The NY Rangers are in a fight for playoff positioning and can use a win after dropping three of five. New York is a strong all around team, #4 in the NHL in goals scored, #14 in goals allowed. The Rangers are off a frustrating 3-1 loss to the Islanders but 37-18 after scoring 2 goals or less in their previous game. Philadelphia is hot but has plenty of flaws, #28 in goals scored, #29 on the power play with a defense in the middle of the pack in goals allowed, plus terrible with penalty killing (#24). The Flyers are 4-11 playing on two days rest, as well as 7-15 when their opponent scores two goals or less in their previous game. Play the NY Rangers.
