Big game tonight folks. The biggest, in fact, since the last, and the biggest game until the next big game, which will probably be the next game they play, also.
The Rangers take the 2 train to Barclays Center as the Islanders play host. For the Rangers, this game isn't terribly important. They sit comfortably in the first wild card spot and it would probably behoove them to remain there - they currently have five more points than the Atlantic Division-leading Montreal Canadiens. Since the Capitals appear to have the Conference pretty much locked up, they will get WC2 while WC1 will get to play in the Atlantic Division for the first two rounds.
