Forward Rick Nash says he’s ready to go tonight against the Dallas Stars after having practiced the last couple of days.  Nash has missed four games after he suffered the minor groin strain against the Islanders on December 6th.  The Rangers have grafted out a 3-1-0 record in his absence, but goal scoring has been hard to come by with just nine goals in that stretch, five in one game alone against the Devils.

With Nash’s return, Nicklas Jensen has been returned to the Hartford Wolf Pack.  Jensen skated in four games without registering a point.
