Original Six action is set to kick off at Madison Square Garden tonight. The Rangers will look to maintain their winning ways and push their ongoing steak up to six games with a win over Juraj Slafkovsky, Nick Suzuki, and the rest of the Montreal Canadiens.
Behind Montreal’s bench as head coach is former Ranger Martin St. Louis, someone who’s no stranger to bright lights and big moments between New York and Montreal. While the stakes of tonight’s matchup aren’t quite what they were when St. Louis helped the Blueshirts defeat the Canadiens in the 2014 Eastern Conference finals, both teams would still like to come away with a victory.
