The New York Rangers will travel to Detroit to take on the Red Wings on Thursday evening. Both sides will be looking to get back on track after losing in their previous games. Meanwhile, the Rangers will be looking to end a run of three straight defeats.

Before Betting On Rangers vs Red Wings

This looks set to be an important fixture for both the Rangers and Red Wings in the NHL this week. The Detroit Red Wings still sit in a very solid position in the Eastern Conference, as they sit second in the Atlantic Division. They have picked up victories in five of their previous ten games, but they come into this after suffering defeat in their previous fixture.

That was an agonizing defeat against the Montreal Canadiens, as they were beaten in a shootout on Tuesday evening. Goals for the Red Wings in that defeat were netted by Lucas Raymond and Austin Czarnik. However, they will have limited time to prepare for this fixture against the Rangers.

It has been a very slow start to the new season for the Rangers, as they sit fifth in the Metropolitan Division at this early stage. They have won just six games from their opening 14 fixtures, and have allowed 43 goals, which is more than any other side located above them in the standings.

Furthermore, they come into this fixture having lost their previous three games in the NHL. Their latest loss was a stinging 4-3 defeat against the New York Islanders. Chris Kreider, Vincent Trocheck and Filip Chytil scored the goals in the defeat.
