Maple Leafs vs Rangers Betting Pick

This game will be played at Madison Square Garden at 7:30 PM ET on Wednesday, January 19, 2022.

Why Bet The Rangers:

Thanks to the Rangers’ hot start over the first half of the season, this game is a potential Eastern Conference playoff preview between two contenders. The Rangers currently are tied for first place in the Metropolitan Division, flying high with a 25-10-4 record.

The Rangers hot start will be put to the test against the Leafs as New York begins a stretch of measuring stick games on the schedule. Eight of the Rangers next twelve games will be against playoff opponents, a real test of the mettle of a team that has overperformed during the first half of the season. 

So far, the blue shirts have held their own against teams that made the playoffs last year. New York has posted a 9-7-1 record against such teams, a sign that they can handle teams like the Maple Leafs. 

In fact, the Rangers proved that they can handle the Maple Leafs earlier this season as their defensive unit contained Toronto’s offensive firepower in a 2-1 overtime win on the road. Toronto returned the favor with a 2-1 win in the rematch to make their third meeting a rubber match between two evenly matched teams. 

Given how close the previous two meetings between these two teams were, the Rangers +140 moneyline price at home is just too tantalizing to pass up. Everything we have seen between the Leafs and Rangers dictates this should be close and a +140 line to take the home team is a must-play. 

Those looking at the total should consider the Under 5.5 at -105 in this one as the previous two meetings this season both finished with 2-1 final scores.
