Columbus Blue Jackets vs New York Rangers: New York Rangers To Win (+114)
Odds correct at time of publishing
The New York Rangers are rolling, having won 7 of their last 10 games, which gives them a solid boost heading into this match against the Columbus Blue Jackets. Columbus has struggled a bit, winning only 4 of their last 10, and that might make it tougher for them, especially since the Rangers have a better recent record. Both teams are nearly equal in skill level, so it could be a tight contest.
Playing at Nationwide Arena could help Columbus, but the Rangers' strong form gives them a good shot at winning this one. The biggest risk is how close these teams are right now, so it might not be easy for the Rangers to pull off the victory. Still, with their current momentum, they seem like the better pick.

Columbus has had a tough time with consistency, and with so many players on their roster not hitting even ten games there, it shows they might be struggling to find their best form. This matchup feels very close, but the Rangers have the momentum and experience to take the second period. Just keep in mind, Columbus could surprise at home.
