Maybe it’s a good thing for the New York Rangers that their next game is more than 600 miles away from Madison Square Garden.
The Rangers take a 6-1-1 road record and a three-game winning streak away from the Garden into their game against the Detroit Red Wings at Little Caesars Arena on Friday — three nights after making some dubious home history with a 3-0 loss to the Carolina Hurricanes.
The Rangers have lost their first six home games (0-5-1) for the first time in the franchise’s 100 NHL seasons.
