The Oilers have defeated the Rangers in six of their last seven meetings including a 4-3 win at Madison Square Garden in their only meeting this season back in November. But now the venue has shifted to Edmonton’s Rogers Place where the Oilers are 13-11-4 while the Rangers have been one of the league’s most lethal road warriors as evidenced by their 16-5-4 mark away from the Big Apple.
The Rangers are on a tear recently, having won six straight while the Oilers have dropped three of their last four contests. Although the Oilers own the No. 1 offense in the league, averaging 3.7 goals per game, their defense is ranked 21st and they will be up against New York’s Igor Shesterkin, last year’s Vezina Trophy winner and a goalie that can steal a game all by himself. Let’s watch the Blueshirts continue their winning ways in Edmonton on Friday night.
