GREENBURGH, N.Y. — Rangers coach Gerard Gallant said Wednesday he won’t bother to look at the video of the game his team played against the Washington Capitals back on opening night. It’s too long ago to have much value, the coach said.

"They play on TV, you watch enough of their games,’’ Gallant said of the Capitals, whom the Rangers face Thursday at Madison Square Garden in their 51st game of the season.
