New York Rangers @ Winnipeg Jets Open Thread
The Rangers hit the road starting in Winnipeg
The Rangers begin a 4 game road trip tonight in Winnipeg for a contest against Patrik Laine and the Jets. The Blueshirts are coming off of a rather lackluster 4-1 victory over the Toronto Maple Leafs. A game where the Rangers defense held the Leafs to just fifty six shots on goal and let Alexander Georgiev make 55 saves on his birthday.
The Jets are returning home after beating the Sabres on Sunday.
Because it worked so well against the Leafs, the Rangers are sticking with the same lineup with Hank in net this time.
#NYR Coach Quinn says Lundqvist will be in net tonight. No other lineup changes.
