The New York Rangers have had a topsy-turvy 2017 so far. It has featured two extended breaks, three home & away back-to-back sequences and most notably: a career-worst stretch of extended play from goaltender Henrik Lundqvist.
Currently 5-5-0 for January, the Rangers can close out the month above .500 with a victory against the Columbus Blue Jackets – a team from which they have taken eight out of the last ten games played and the very same team against whom Michael Grabner helped deliver arguably their most exciting win of the season…this month.
