NHL Hockey Free Pick: New York Rangers vs Pittsburgh Penguins<\/h2>\n

Hockey Gambling<\/strong><\/a> fans sure are getting their money\u2019s worth from the free nhl picks<\/strong><\/a> we give out here at Capperspicks.com.<\/p>\n

Team records:<\/strong>
\nNew York: 26-27-7
\nPittsburgh: 36-22-2<\/p>\n

Tonight, 7:35 p.m. ET
\nSportsbook odds: Rangers +190, Penguins -230 <\/p>\n

To say the deck is stacked against the New York Rangers tonight is an understatement. The Penguins are 4-0 against the Broadway Blueshirts this season; Sidney Crosby has absolutely torn them apart, tallying six goals and 11 points in those four wins. <\/p>\n

The Pens aren\u2019t sizzling, winning two and losing two so far this month, but they\u2019ve been strong at Mellon Arena playing in front of their loyal fans. Marc-Andre Fleury hasn\u2019t been at his best between the pipes lately; he has a 3.65 goals against average in four February games. But the Rangers aren\u2019t a major offensive threat and Fleury started all four victories over them this season. <\/p>\n

New York is seeing nice development from youngsters Ryan Callahan and Brandon Dubinsky but Marian Gaborik is its only true offensive weapon and he\u2019s no sure bet to play tonight. \"Sports He\u2019s still recovering from a fairly large laceration on his knee, suffered in a freak collision with goalie Henrik Lundqvist during a practice earlier this week. With no Gabby, the Rangers can\u2019t possibly match Pittsburgh\u2019s offense, can they? <\/p>\n

If you need another reason to pick Pittsburgh tonight: Lundqvist is just 3-9-2 at Mellon Arena in his career. Stranger things have happened than a Ranger upset but it doesn\u2019t seem likely tonight.<\/p>\n
