The Blueshirts are set to hit the ice for their final home game before a five game road trip out west that’ll see them visit Seattle before playing the Western Conference’s Canadian teams. For tonight, the Nashville Predators will be the opponent as Peter Laviolette’s squad looks to build momentum following their Monday night win over Arizona.
Igor Shesterkin appears set to start tonight’s contest, which means Jonathan Quick’s Broadway debut will likely happen at some point on the upcoming road trip. After splitting last year’s season series with the Predators, a two game set that saw both teams successfully defend home ice, the Rangers will look to once again earn two points and send the attending residents of Rangerstown home happy for the final home game of October.
