Rangers have been a lock lately at Madison Square Garden

The New York Rangers will welcome the Dallas Stars tonight and the Stars could be in trouble. After dropping three straight, Dallas has to contend with a Rangers squad that has won 10 of its last 11 games at MSG and is 7-3 SU in the last 10 games. New York opened as a -120 favorite to get the W.

SHARK BITES
  • The Stars are 1-3 SU and ATS in their last four games against the Rangers.
  • The Stars are 5-2 SU in their last seven games after consecutive losses.
  • The Rangers are 7-2 SU in their last nine games with one day off between games.

Dallas was on a nice run before its most recent road trip, riding a five-game winning streak. But losses to Western Conference heavyweights like St. Louis, Nashville and Vegas have shown that the Stars still have some work to do to be considered among the elite in the NHL. During those three losses, they were outscored 13-5 and will be in tough to hang with the Rangers as Dallas is 1-3 SU in its last four trips to New York.

The Rangers can be fickle for bettors some nights where they drop games to inferior competition. But those days are a thing of the past since November started as New York is 12-4 SU since hitting rock bottom in the first few weeks of the season. As mentioned, the Blueshirts have been lights out at home and bettors should consider taking the Rangers moneyline in this one.

The total opened at 6 for this game and the UNDER may be a decent wager for bettors as the UNDER has hit in five of the last seven games in this matchup.
