New York Rangers vs Tampa Bay Lightning Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 11/12/25

The New York Rangers and Tampa Bay Lightning clash on Wednesday in the NHL. This is the first of three matchups between these Eastern Conference teams. These two are hot, and will be looking to build off of their current momentum. To get you set for the action, here is our Rangers vs. Lightning prediction.

The Lightning have won two-straight games, and seven of their last eight games. The Rangers are coming off a win, and have won five of their last seven games. However within that seven game span for New York, they suffered 5-0 and 3-0 blowout. This shows me there is still some inconsistency in their game, compared to Tampa Bay whose only recent loss was a tight 3-2 final against the NHL’s best Colorado Avalanche. Tampa Bay is on home ice where they have a 4-3-0 record in seven games. Tampa Bay’s strong stretch of play is making up for a very slow start of 1-4-2, and I don’t see them slowing down. For our Rangers vs. Lightning prediction, take Tampa Bay on the money line.
