What our Post expert thinks about NHL Opening Night
The first few weeks of the NHL season are always full of surprises, so you may want to tread carefully laying big prices as we raise the curtain.
The Panthers and Rangers are both chunky favorites in their respective matchups, but the playing field is as level as it will be all season in the first game of the campaign, so it could be a good idea to take a shot on one of the underdogs.
