The New York Rangers will face off against the Colorado Avalanche tonight in the first of a back-to-back. The Rangers are 1-4-0 with just two points on the season that came when they defeated the San Jose Sharks last Thursday. Since then, they lost to the Edmonton Oilers on Saturday. The Avalanche are 3-1-1 with seven points; they lost their last game in overtime to the Calgary Flames.
Here at Buchnevich Banter, we’ll actually be boycotting the Rangers tonight since our adult Russian son Pavel Buchnevich is a healthy scratch, and we as a result, can no longer watch David Quinn coach a game.
