The Rangers close out their west coast trip tonight in Edmonton, looking to make it a solid 3-1 on their four game trip. Their clunker in Calgary took the wind out of their sails for sure, but Edmonton is struggling and very beatable right now. The simple trick is to not allow 50 shots on net, but perhaps it’s not as simple as we think.
The Oilers may be struggling, but they are still very good and can put up a touchdown rather easily against any team. This is still a top tier team in the Western Conference. Getting back to basics and playing fundamental hockey will be the key.
Note: This was scheduled before starting lineups and goalies were announced.
