On the sixteenth day of November, the Blueshirts are set to play their sixteenth game of the 2021-22 campaign. Tonight’s affair will be an Original Six matchup, with the Rangers welcoming the Montreal Canadiens into the world’s most famous arena in a class of red, white, and blue teams.
The Rangers defeated the Canadiens in Montreal exactly one month ago, as the team secured a 3-1 victory in their only scheduled trip to the Bell Centre this season. Gerard Gallant’s squad will look a but different than it did that night, as Sammy Blais exited Sunday night’s game due to an injury, which has since been confirmed as a torn ACL that will end Blais’ season after only 14 games.
