The New York Rangers (34-17-9) meet the Philadelphia Flyers (23-28-10) Wednesday at Wells Fargo Center. Puck drop is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. (TNT). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Rangers vs. Flyers odds, and make our expert NHL picks and predictions.
The Rangers halted a 4-game losing skid (0-3-1) with a 5-2 victory against the Los Angeles Kings Sunday. The Blueshirts had lit the lamp just 7 times in the 4 games prior to the L.A. win.
Management is hoping the addition of RW Patrick Kane from the Chicago Blackhawks on Tuesday will keep the offensive machine humming. Kane will not make his team debut on Wednesday, however.
The Flyers have had several days off since they were embarrassed 7-0 on the road against the New Jersey Devils Saturday. Philadelphia has had issues on offense lately, too, averaging just 1.9 goals per game across the past 10 outings.
