New York Rangers Open Thread: Rangers Vs. Capitals

The New York Rangers will take on the Washington Capitals tonight at Madison Square Garden starting at 7:30 PM.



The New York Rangers will take on the Washington Capitals tonight as they search for their third straight win, and the weekend sweep as well. Just 24 hours prior the Rangers defeated the Ottawa Senators 4-1, and picked up their East leading 15th road win. Tonight's lineup will remain the same according to Alain Vigneault, and the only change will be Henrik Lundqvist starting in net.

Player To Watch:


Rick Nash

#61 / Right Wing / New York Rangers

6-4

213

Jun 16, 1984


Rick Nash has been a completely different player these last few weeks, and his goal yesterday afternoon in Ottawa was vintage Nash. He's been everywhere lately, and it's only safe to assume that he'll have yet another big game tonight against Washington.
