NHL Predictions<\/h2>\n

New York Rangers vs Detroit Red Wings<\/h3>\n

2024-25 Season Series: Rangers 3-0 Hurricanes<\/h4>\n

How to Watch<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Canada TV:<\/strong> Sportsnet<\/p>\n

Time:<\/strong> 7 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (EST)<\/p>\n

We open up NHL Predictions with our featured game between the Rangers and Red Wings. Igor Shesterkin<\/a> is expected to get the start in goal for the Blueshirts. However, always check social media before locking in a daily fantasy starter. New York was shut out by the Carolina Hurricanes<\/a> on Wednesday, which has become a theme in several Rangers’ losses. Adam Fox<\/a> is first on the club in assists (8) and points (11).<\/p>\n

Cam Talbot<\/a> is confirmed to get the start for Detroit against his old team. The Red Wings lost the last time out, but are 6-4 in the last 10 games. Detroit is one of the better penalty-killing units, as it’s tied for sixth with an 87.2 percent success rate. Dylan Larkin<\/a> is first in goals (8) and points (18) so far this season.<\/p>\n

The Rangers have played better, but the Red Wings get the victory.<\/p>\n

Prediction: Red Wings win 3-2.<\/p>\n

Minnesota Wild vs New York Islanders<\/h3>\n

Our second game of NHL predictions has the Minnesota Wild<\/a> taking on the New York Islanders<\/a>. Jesper Wallstedt<\/a> is the confirmed starter for the Wild, who are 3-4-3 in the last 10 games. Minnesota has struggled at both ends of the ice, with it being 29th in goals allowed with 3.67 goals allowed per game. Kirill Kaprizov<\/a> leads in goals (8), assists (11), and points (19) early in this campaign.<\/p>\n

David Rittich<\/a> is the confirmed starter for the Islanders, who are 6-2-2 in the last 10 games. However, New York did lose its last time on the ice. Bo Horvat<\/a> is tops in goals (9) and points (15) so far this season.<\/p>\n

Both clubs are coming off losses, but the Islanders are more solid on the defensive end.<\/p>\n

Prediction: Islanders win 5-3.<\/em><\/p>\n

Our last featured game of NHL predictions has the Chicago Blackhawks<\/a> visiting the Calgary Flames<\/a>. Chicago is expected to go with Spencer Knight<\/a> in goal for this game. The Blackhawks are 5-3-2 in the last 10 games and are coming off a victory. Connor Bedard<\/a> is first in goals (7), assists (11), and points (18).<\/p>\n

Dustin Wolfe is the projected starter for the Flames, who are 3-5-2 in the last 10 games. However, Calgary has won the last two consecutive games entering this matchup. Blake Coleman<\/a> is first on the club in goals with six, but Nazem Kadri<\/a> is tops in assists (7) and points (11).<\/p>\n
