Can the Rangers limit Oilers power plays?

ESPN’s team figures through October 27 put the Rangers at 138 penalty minutes in 14 games and the Oilers at 105 in 12. If the Rangers stay out of the box, the Oilers will have fewer chances to use their power play. Oilers penalties would let the Rangers test the visitors’ weaker penalty kill; a low-penalty game would reduce the influence of both matchups.

Can the Rangers’ home scoring overcome recent concessions?

The Rangers scored at least three goals in each of their first seven home games. Adam Fox had a point in seven straight home games, and Alexis Lafrenière had a point in 10 of his previous 11 games. If the Rangers keep conceding at their recent pace, even another three-goal home game might not be enough.
