The Rangers are a team that has not really decided if they want to play hockey this season. The way the Rangers have taken to the ice in some of the games they look flat and lackadaisical at times and that has definitely not helped the Rangers get anything going on the ice. The one saving grace the Rangers do have is they are playing in the Metro and that means they are in the same division as the Devils who have been playing horrible on the year. Another bright spot is the way the Rangers played against the Maple Leafs who they beat by a 4-1 score.

The Jets are playing at a very high level and are definitely going to have the home ice advantage as the arena is loud and in charge. However, the Jets are also the better team in this game and that means the offense for the Jets will be hard to slow down and coupled with the great defense it will be impossible for the Rangers to score. Final Score Prediction, Winnipeg Jets win 4-0.
