The New York Rangers are all set for their matchup against the Dallas Stars tonight at 7 PM EST. Here’s everything you need to know from a Rangers perspective. The Rangers are coming off of a 6-2 win over the Chicago Blackhawks. Igor Shesterkin and Chris Kreider are both on injured reserve with upper-body injuries.
In their last game at the time of this writing, the New York Rangers had a 3-0 lead over the Dallas Stars within the first ten minutes of the first period.
Harley seems to have found his groove offensively. He had a three point night against New York, including one goal and two assists. This comes right on the heels of his overtime winning goal in the previous game against Utah. He now has six points in his last four games.
Lyubushkin went down after taking a hit from Sam Carrick and didn’t return when the Stars took the ice for the third period.
Jake Oettinger made 21 saves and Dallas defenseman Thomas Harley had a goal and two assists. Harley’s snap shot tied it 4-all at 17:21 of the third period following a terrible turnover by Rangers defenseman K’Andre Miller deep in his own end.
With the Rangers leading 4-3 late in the third, K’Andre Miller seemed to be in control while with the puck in the defensive zone. A forechecking Sam Steel changed that. He charged at Miller, breaking up an attempted pass behind the net to seize possession. He fed Harley for the game-tying goal.
And Rempe acknowledged another violation could lead to a “huge suspension,” forcing him to confront the daunting challenge of embracing his physicality — the strength that helped him carve out a marginal role in the first place and become a fan favorite after debuting last February — while preventing it from becoming reckless.
