The Eastern Conference’s top two teams are set to clash on national television tonight. The world’s most famous arena is the scene for the third and final regular season clash between the Rangers and Panthers. New York enters the game with a league-best .686 points percentage, and is fresh off a road victory over the league leading Boston Bruins, who currently sit one point ahead of the Blueshirts but have played two extra games.
Florida currently sits in second in the Atlantic Division behind Boston, but with three less points in three less games it currently holds the edge in points percentage compared to Boston, second only in the East to the Rangers.
