After a day of rest following their most recent victory against the Pittsburgh Penguins, the Blueshirts are back in action tonight for their most meaningful game in five years. The Ottawa Senators are in town for the third and final meeting of the season series, and Gerard Gallant’s squad will look to complete a sweep of the series. Should they do so, the Rangers will officially clinch their first playoff berth since the 2016-17 season, a campaign that ended in a second round defeat to these same Senators on the same ice of Madison Square Garden tonight’s contest will be played on.
