The NHL Metropolitan Division will offer one of the most attractive games in next Thursday’s schedule when New York Rangers and New Jersey Devils clash at 06:00 pm CST in a must-win game for both teams. However, it’s undeniable that both are crossing through very negative streaks, even so they’re expected to deliver a spectacular game.
On the one hand, New York Rangers are the third worst team in the Eastern Conference with just 38 points, and even when Alex Lafreniere has been the offensive leader of this team during their most recent games, Trocheck and Panarim are expected to appear more frequently. Additionally, this team has only been able to shoot 35 or more times on target in only 1 out of their last 5 games.
On the other hand, New Jersey Devils were relegated to the third spot of the Eastern Conference, and even when they were the undisputed leaders the most part of the time since the beginning of the season, they recently had a terrible streak of 4 losses in a row. In that matter, it must be remarked that they couldn’t score more than 1 goal in the first period of their last 5 games in a row.
