The Carolina Hurricanes take on the New York Rangers tonight for the final time in the 2019-20 regular season.
The Canes desperately need a win against their Divisional opponent tonight to secure two more points in both the league standings and the Metropolitan Division standings.

In this stretch, the Rangers have down opponents such as the LA Kings, the Chicago Blackhawks, the Winnipeg Jets, and the Columbus Blue Jackets.
