Following their victory in Vancouver, the Rangers gave crossed the provincial line into Alberta as they continue their swing through western Canada. Tonight is the first half of a back to back set against the league’s Alberta-based teams, and the Edmonton Oilers will be hosting the Blueshirts tonight.
The first meeting between these two teams on November 26th has arguably been the lowest point of the 2022-23 campaign for New York. A 3-0 lead heading into the 3rd period in front of the Madison Square Garden crowd dissipated and had turned into a 4-3 regulation defeat by the time the clock hit 0:00 and dropped the Rangers’ record to 10-8-4.
