The New York Rangers will take on the Minnesota Wild tonight at 8 PM. It'll be on home ice tonight, as the Rangers will need to earn a regulation win to get 2 points desperately needed to qualify for a wildcard spot in the playoffs.
The New York Rangers hold the 5th spot in the Metropolitan Division with a record of 31-28-6 and will take on a hot Minnesota Wild team.
The Wild had begun the NHL season as one of the league's top teams, and have since cooled down to a cool 4th place in the Central Division, which has restocked its talent pool with Brock Nelson's trade to the Avalanche.
The Rangers will have to find a weakness in the Wild's armor, who at the moment lack a healthy Kirill Kaprizov in the lineup tonight.
Another explanation of why they made a trade for Gus Nyquist, another high-flying and scoring winger who could add skill while Kaprizov recovers.
