This is not exactly a clash of power house teams. The Senators sit at the bottom of the Atlantic Division, and the Rangers are second to last in the Metropolitan Division.
Both of these once mighty teams are in rebuilding phases. They have both lost three of their last five, and both suffer from middling goaltending.
This will actually be the second time these teams meet this season, with New York having a 1-0 lead so far in three meet ups for the season.
Would Ottawa like to even score heading in Madison Square Garden? Undoubtedly, will they? Let’s take a look…

Ottawa Senators
Despite their poor standing in the eastern Conference, Ottawa has actually outscored their opponents in their past 10 games. That is their total number of goals, 15, is greater than the combined total of their opponents’ goals, 14.
But as they say, timing is everything. So while forwards like Connor Brown and Anthony Duclair are perfectly capable of sending the puck to the back of the net, Ottawa’s lacking in defence and goaltending make those efforts academic.
Not to mention, they have the worst power play in the league. The man advantage for Ottawa is almost non-existent at this point.

New York Rangers
The Rangers, while 2-3 in their last five, are actually on a two game winning streak.
And just like the Senators, they do get decent output from forwards Artemi Panarin and Ryan Strome.
While neither team benefits from stellar goaltending, veteran Ranger, Henrik Lundqvist can at least remember the glory days, and some nights almost plays like the Lundqvist of old (almost).
4* Free NHL Betting Pick: Rangers ML
Although both teams are almost assuredly out of any playoff contention already, from a wagering perspective, this is an interesting game.
As noted, Ottawa would still like to at least tie the season series between these two teams. While the Rangers certainly want a hometown win for the die hard fans.
It might be a little tempting to go with underdog Ottawa, but that would be unwise. They just don’t have the goaltending, or defence to keep them in the game, should things go sideways.
NHL Free Prediction: Senators 2 – Rangers 4
Despite, shaky goaltending on both sides, and the aforementioned goal scorers all healthy and in fine form, the under still seems like the smart bet here.
Ottawa is down, but they have some pride. They will play hard enough to keep the game reasonably close, shutting down Ranger fans hope for a fan satisfying blowout.
