Rangers have forecast their line-up for tonight, with the exception of the goaltender – who will be shared during warm-ups.  With a game tomorrow night, it would seem the expectation currently is to use one guy tonight, and the other tomorrow at the home opener against Dallas.

In terms of surprises, there are none from the line-up we’ve see the last couple of days.  Six Rangers are set to make their Ranger debuts tonight, with Sammy Blais, Barclay Goodrow, Dryden Hunt, Patrik Nemeth, Ryan Reaves and Jarred Tinordi all expected to play – barring late minute illness or injury.

This means that Libor Hajek, Nils Lundkvist and Julien Gauthier will be the healthy scratches, with perhaps Lundkvist getting in tomorrow against the Stars for his debut, though no indication has been given on any possible changes, and events tonight could change the calculation.
