In this Blue Jackets vs Rangers matchup, we expect the hosts to demolish the visiting Columbus Blue Jackets, covering the puckline as favorites along the way. New York has been great at home this season. But the key to this game will be the focus from the Rangers, who will have revenge on the brain after the Blue Jackets ended their nine-game winning streak last week. With the Rangers not on a back-to-back in this game, we like them to win convincingly at Madison Square Garden.
