Canadiens vs Rangers: Game preview, start time, and TV schedule

After a full season of near-impeccable team health, the Canadiens started to experience some adversity with the losses of Carey Price, Alexei Emelin, Torrey Mitchell, and briefly, Devante Smith-Pelly. Tonight, in the absence of Brendan Gallagher, they'll begin to take on a much greater challenge.

Gallagher's loss goes deeper than the impressive numbers he has put up in the box score. As Berkshire pointed out on last night's Ice Level, No Canadiens forward gains the offensive zone more efficiently than #11, and few players in the NHL have put up more scoring chances this season than the Habs' top right-winger.
