The NHL schedule for next Sunday, January 19th will be very short, however the game between Montreal Canadiens and New York Rangers will definitely be key for these teams in the Eastern Conference standings. Also, it’s worth noting that the Rangers have been showing an amazing recovery during their most recent games, so their chances of qualifying to the playoffs are very high right now.
Meanwhile, Montreal Canadiens are also showing a better competitive level compared to the beginning of the season, so they must try to take advantage of playing at home to show their best offensive tactics. Nonetheless, they currently are the third worst offensive in the Atlantic Division with 137 scored goals, being also necessary noting that their defensive line is the second worst in their Division.
On New York Rangers’ case they’ve been able to increase their defensive effectiveness after not receiving more than 3 goals in any of their last 5 games, a streak that is showing the engagement of this team to become more competitive during the second half of the season. In this regard, the Rangers have a streak of 7 games in a row without losing in regulation time, so it isn’t surprising to have them as the favorites to win this game.
