Game Thread: 2/2, Rangers at Sabres

Please let this game erase the memory of Tuesday night's game. Please.

Hey, it's game night!

The Rangers are on the road in frigid, merciless Buffalo against the Sabres. Magnus Hellberg is here because Antii Raanta has a new baby and the Rangers are looking to move forward after a miserable game against the Blue Jackets on Tuesday.

Brandon Pirri is scratched and Oscar Lindberg is back in for the Rangers.

Here is tonight's projected Rangers lineup:

Chris Kreider-Mika Zibanejad-Mats Zuccarello

Jimmy Vesey-Derek Stepan-Rick Nash

Michael Grabner-J.T. Miller-Jesper Fast

Matt Puempel-Oscar Lindberg-Pavel Buchnevich

Ryan McDonagh-Dan Girardi

Marc Staal-Nick Holden

Brady Skjei-Kevin Klein

Adam Clendening is out of the lineup, he skated this morning with Pirri. Henrik Lundqvist gets the start tonight after being pulled against Columbus at the Garden on Tuesday.

Buffalo is 20-20-9 this season and they are 5-5-0 in their last ten games. Jack Eichel is good at hockey.

Enjoy the game. Let's go Rangers.
