Game Preview

It has been a season to remember for the Hurricanes so far this term. They come into this round of games sitting top of the Metropolitan Division, having gone 23-11-3. Meanwhile, their recent form has been consistent, going 6-3-1 over their last ten.

The Canes were last in action over the weekend, as they recorded a 5-2 home win over the Detroit Red Wings. Eric Robinson scored in the win, while Shayne Gostisbehere and Andrei Svechnikov ended the night with assists.

The Rangers will have a huge challenge on their hands to finish in the playoff places this season. They come into this clash on Monday sitting sixth in the Metropolitan Division, going 19-17-4 this term.

Consistency has also been an issue over their last ten, winning just four times and suffering five losses in regulation. The Rangers were easily beaten in their latest outing against the NY Islanders. The Rangers lacked offensive threat throughout that 2-0 loss.

Rangers vs. Hurricanes Picks

The Rangers have struggled for wins throughout the season, which makes them a challenging selection on Monday. Therefore, the sensible play is to side with a home win for the Canes.
