Following a strong comeback victory against the Carolina Hurricanes at Madison Square Garden on Tuesday night, the New York Rangers are back in action tonight as they head to Canada to take on the Montreal Canadiens at 7:00 PM Eastern time.
Backup goalie Jaroslav Halak will get the start tonight for the Rangers, to give Igor Shesterkin some rest. It’s also possible that the Blueshirts will have some other lineup tweaks in light of Gustav Rydahl being recalled from AHL Hartford, as Jonny Brodzinski’s wife went into labor.
