Connor McDavid (53) and Leon Draisaitl (52) lead the NHL in points and Draisaitl is clinging to a one-goal lead over Washington’s Alex Ovechkin for the top spot in goals, but their team has not kept pace.
Scoring an early goal is key for the Rangers as they are 13-1-2 when lighting the lamp first this season. The best matchup of the night will be the Oilers' top ranked power play unit (31.2%) vs. the Rangers' fifth-ranked penalty kill (84.5%). The Rangers have been perfect on the penalty kill in six of their last eight games and 12 of their last 15 games.
