Banged Up Rangers Take On Caps
The Rangers are in D.C. tonight to play the fifth placed Washington Capitals. Neither team has been terribly consistent this season, though both are coming off wins. The Blueshirts for their part took care of the Atlanta Thrashers 3-2 in a shootout Saturday night, battling back from a late 2-1 deficit with both Brandon Prust and Dan Girardi injured early in the game.
Washington finally got some goal scoring out of Alexander Ovechkin Saturday afternoon, with a hat trick in a 4-1 win over the struggling Maple Leafs, and are now 3-0-1 in their last four games.
