The Habs have been making it interesting over the past couple games, with a big win over the Ducks on Tuesday followed by almost coming back from a 4-0 deficit in a 4-3 loss to the Red Wings in Detroit on Thursday night. The necessary injection of youth into the lineup has made for some good and bad moments, but definitely some more entertaining hockey.
The Rangers are a team the Habs have had a lot of success against in the regular season, and stand poised to sweep the season series tonight. The Rangers handed the Bruins their fifth loss in a row in a 5-2 win on Wednesday, and sit third in the Eastern Conference.
