Rangers Looking to Get Back in the Win Column
The New York Rangers are brutal offensively, as they are 30th in the NHL with 22 goals scored entering this game.

He failed to record any points on two shot attempts in his last game against the Flames over 22:09 on the ice. Their power play has been slightly below the league average as they converted on 4-of-25 (16.00 percent) of their attempts, so they will need to improve on that front.

He last played last Sunday against the Calgary Flames in a loss where he allowed five goals on 30 shot attempts.
