Division rivals are prepared to knock heads as the Canes seek a change in momentum, while the Rangers try to change their early-season misfortunes on home ice.
Division foes will take the ice on Tuesday night at Madison Square Garden when the Carolina Hurricanes battle the New York Rangers. The Canes enter without much momentum, dropping four of their last six after a 5-0-0 start. They dropped a 2-1 decision to the Boston Bruins on Saturday afternoon, with Alexander Nikishin providing the only tally for Carolina.
