"The Rangers are in Tampa tonight to take on a Lightning team that looks like they will be without both Victor Hedman and Anthony Cirelli. Those are two key defensive presences that are game time decisions, which hopefully gives the Rangers an opportunity to build on Monday night's 6-3 domination of the Nashville Predators. The lines are essentially the same, save for a bottom six winger swap. Even shorthanded, Tampa is a real challenge."

The Rangers travel to Tampa where the Lightning may be without defensemen Victor Hedman and Anthony Cirelli, both listed as game-time decisions. Those possible absences would reduce Tampa's defensive depth and could alter matchup strategies. The Rangers' forward and defensive groupings remain largely unchanged aside from a bottom-six winger swap. Igor Shesterkin is starting in goal for the Rangers. Alexei Vasilevskiy is scheduled to start in net for the Lightning. The matchup follows the Rangers' 6-3 victory over Nashville and is slated for a 7pm puck drop.
