What our Post expert thinks about Rangers vs. Penguins
It’s only fitting that Rangers head coach Mike Sullivan will face his former team on opening night. The Rangers missed the playoffs last season and will look to get back with Sullivan at the helm. FanDuel has the Rangers listed at -190 to make the playoffs.
The Penguins, without Sullivan, don’t have much confidence from sportsbooks to have a future beyond the regular season. They have the third-longest odds in the NHL to make the playoffs (+750).
