The New York Rangers aim to close the gap in the playoff race against the Columbus Blue Jackets by facing the Toronto Maple Leafs, albeit without key players Chris Kreider and Adam Fox. Their performance is heavily reliant on Fox's ability to move the puck, which has left a significant void in generating offense. Despite the odds, the Rangers have a history of surprising outcomes where they often win games they are expected to lose, largely due to their star goaltender Igor Shesterkin.
The Rangers are four points out with a game in hand on the Columbus Blue Jackets, looking to make it two tonight with Toronto coming to town.
The Rangers simply don’t generate offense without Fox on the ice, and their blue line can’t move the puck well.
Knowing them, they will probably find a way to win while riding Igor Shesterkin. They seem to win when they shouldn’t and lose when they should win.
Crazy Prediction: The Rangers pull Lindgren mid-game for a trade.
