The second game in the NHL for next Sunday schedule corresponds to the clash between Pittsburgh Penguins and New York Rangers, which will take place at 02:30 pm CST. In this regard, these teams are two of the worst in the Metropolitan Division, so even when the bookmakers’ odds are putting the Rangers as the big favorites, they aren’t expected to dominate the game.
However, Pittsburgh Penguins made a disappointing return to the activity after their 3-8 loss against Washington Capitals last Saturday, a result that kept them as the worst defensive line in the Eastern Conference after conceding 209 goals throughout the season. Despite this, it must be noted that their level in the first period against the Capitals wasn’t really bad, so they’re expected to display a good level during the early instances of this game.
Meanwhile, New York Rangers also disappointed their fanatics after their terrible loss against Buffalo Sabres (8-2), an unexpected result that let them 4 points behind the playoffs’ mark. Additionally, the Rangers remark as the second worst offensive in the Metropolitan Division with just 167 goals scored, so they should look up for revenge in this game after their 2-3 loss against the Penguins last February 07th.
