New York Rangers at Carolina Hurricanes: Open Game Thread
New York Rangers at Carolina Hurricanes, Apr 2, 2009 7:00 PM EDT
TV: MSG (NHL Center Ice DirecTv 773)
RADIO: 1050 AM
Goin' to Carolina in my mind: Canes Country
Between the Pipes:
Game Notes:
- Carolina will be going for their 10th straight win at home, and 7th overall.
- Rangers can move into a tie with Carolina for 6th place with a win in regulation tonight.
- Henrik Lundqvist earned his 20th NHL shutout to lift the Rangers to a 3-0 victory that sent the New Jersey Devils to a season-high, fifth straight loss Monday night. Lundqvist, who made 19 saves in the second, matched Martin Brodeur early and then outplayed him in earning his third shutout and 35th win of the season. His best stops came in the second when he made a quick save with his left pad on Brian Rolston and then kicked out Bobby Holik's hard drive on the rebound.
- 2nd reunion in 6 days for D Marc Staal. After facing brother Jordan and the Penguins on Saturday, tonight he faces brother Eric.
- Canes G Cam Ward has allowed a grand total of 11 goals during his six-game win streak. Any GAA under two is pretty impressive no matter what the length of time is.

I wonder if he’ll be traded with redden. Although i don’t think any team has enough of a supply in sticks and pucks to get redden. For that matter need anyone to drive the Zamboni during periods.
