Day: March 6, 2010

The Rangers close out their season series against the Capitals tonight – MSG+ 7:00pm and game thread – and will be hoping to even the series at 2-2. The last time the Capitals played the Rangers, they leaped out to a 5-3 lead on the back of four power play goals, only to lose 6-5 in regulation.

Going into tonight’s game, the Rangers find themselves tied for eighth, with a chance to move up to seventh – check out the Games to Watch thread – or tenth, depending on how things work out. They’ll get their leading scorer, right wing Marian Gaborik back in the line-up for the first time since February 12th.
