Peter Laviolette Addresses Media On Critical Divisional Game Tomorrow
The Rangers are likely to enter tomorrow's divisional showdown against the Philadelphia Flyers missing half of their six regular defensemen.
Regardless, no excuses, the Rangers are good enough to walk away with a win.
The Rangers have gone 17-4-1 since the all-star break to climb their way to the top of the Eastern Conference standings, but Boston, Carolina and Florida are each one point back.
This is the first time in NHL history that the top seven teams have been separated by one point after each has completed at least 85% of its schedule.
A win will continue to keep Carolina at bay for the division lead with 10 games to go.
