Free Tampa Bay Lightning vs. New York Rangers NHL Prediction:
The Rangers have struggled to find the net on the power-play in their previous 10 games against Tampa Bay. They have only two goals in 35 opportunities.
The Lightning, on the other hand, have been able to light the lantern on eight of their 38 power-plays.
I could see this being an issue for the Rangers on Tuesday night.
Both of these teams are spending a ton of time in the penalty box and skating shorthanded could have a huge effect on the outcome.
On paper, these teams match up fairly evenly. I’m taking the Rangers simply because they are playing at home.
If the game would have been in Tampa Bay my pick would have gone the other way.
