TONIGHT 7:30 PM TV: MSG, NBCSN
RANGERS LOOK TO PICK UP GROUND ON PENS TONIGHT VS TAMPA BAY
@RNYRF Staff Report
SEASON SERIES: Facing off for the 3rd and final time of the season tonight and the first on Garden Ice, the Rangers and Lightning have split the season series with a win. The Rangers lost to the Lightning on November 19th, a 2-1 final and won the second meeting 5-2 on December 30th both contests played in Tampa Bay. Dominic Moore leads the Rangers in scoring vs Tampa with 2 goals and an assist.
RANGERS TEAM NOTES: Coming off the road win in Columbus the Rangers return home for their final 3 games of the regular season. Ryan McDonagh's status for tonight's game is questionable after blocking a shot in the first period of last night's game with his hand or arm. McDonagh will be re-evaluated today and there was mention of a recall from AHL Hartford which doesn't bode well for the Rangers or McDonagh. he Rangers are look to extend their winning streak to 2 games tonight trailing Pittsburgh in the standings for second place by 3 points.
