For the first time this season, the New Jersey Devils (15-20-7) will head to Madison Square Garden to take on the New York Rangers (20-18-4) Thursday night.
Ahead of Thursday’s game, Devils left-winger Miles Wood had high praise for the Rangers defense his team will look to score against.
“Their D (defense), first and foremost.” Wood told Devils.com when asked what stands out about the Rangers. “They jump up in the play.
“They are fast. The first line is pretty special over there. Overall, I think they’re a young, deep group and it’s going to be a good test for us.
