The Ottawa Senators snapped a four-game skid last night and have the chance to start a winning streak by topping the New York Rangers at Madison Square Garden on Wednesday, January 14.

My Senators vs. Rangers predictions and NHL picks expect Ottawa to prevail tonight with New York reeling along a miserable stretch out of the holiday break.

Senators vs Rangers prediction

Senators vs Rangers best bet: Senators moneyline (-110)

Give me the Ottawa Senators tonight, because the New York Rangers are serving up goals on a silver platter with 4.25 against per game during their 1-5-2 run out of the holiday break. 

Injuries to No. 1 goalie Igor Shesterkin (lower body) and go-to defenseman Adam Fox (lower body) haven’t helped. But the Blueshirts are also allowing the third-most expected goals per 60 minutes while ranking 25th in Corsi For percentage at 5-on-5 during the slump, reinforcing that injuries aren’t the only bad seed in the Big Apple.

Of course, the Sens continue to pop in the fancy stats, with a fifth-ranked CF% and xGF% at 5-on-5, in addition to ranking ninth in power-play percentage for the year.

Senators vs Rangers same-game parlay

With the Blueshirts allowing goals in bunches, Sens winger Drake Batherson is positioned to continue padding the points column tonight.

He’s marked the scoresheet in 13 of the past 20 games, and his 3.22 points per 60 minutes during the run are tied for tops on the team with projected linemate Tim Stutzle.

Continuing with Ottawa center Dylan Cozens, he’s recorded two or more shots in 14 of 16 games for 42 total on 80 attempts, and the Rangers have allowed a healthy 29.5 shots per game out of the holiday break.

He loves to lean on his rolodex of idioms to offset his inner nerd. When it comes to wagering, he throws down on anything that catches his eye at bet365, Betway and BetVictor. He also keeps a close eye on CoolBet because the polar bear brand often has outlier NHL and NFL moneyline prices.

If his decade-plus teaching run taught him anything about sports betting, it’s to stay the course and use the summer – or offseason – to refresh and prepare to be better in the year to come.
