4* Iceman Opening Play
(NHL) NY Rangers vs. Washington,
Money Line: -124.00 Washington (Home)
Result: Win
The Rangers made a lot of changes in the offseason, but they look like a team that can contend for a playoff spot this season. They played well offensively last season, but their lack of depth on the defensive end is a cause for concern, especially when going up against Ovechkin and the rest of Washington’s offense, which was fourth in the league in scoring last season. NY has played well on the road in DC, losing 8 of their last 10 games there, so go with the Capitals to pick up the win on Wednesday night.
