The New York Rangers are back in action tonight at 8:00 pm EST as they take on the Winnipeg Jets on the road. The Jets are one of hockey’s best teams at 44-17-4. New York, on the other hand, is fighting desperately for a playoff spot. At 32-27-6, they’re two points back of the final wild card in the East.

New York currently has just two injuries to deal with. Both defenseman Adam Fox and center Adam Edstrom are on Injured Reserve. They are the only players who won’t play tonight.

The team is otherwise healthy, so we expect the following lineup. Bear in mind that things can change before puck drop:

Forwards:

  1. LW Artemi Panarin – C Vincent Trocheck – RW Alexis Lafrenière
  2. LW Will Cuylle – C JT Miller – RW Mika Zibanejad
  3. LW Chris Kreider – C Sam Carrick – RW Brett Berard
  4. LW Brennan Othmann – C Jonny Brodzinski – RW Matt Rempe

Defensive Pairs:

  1. K’Andre Miller – Will Borgen
  2. Ryan Lindgren – Urho Vaakanainen
  3. Zac Jones – Braden Schneider

Goaltenders:

  1. Igor Shesterkin
  2. Jonathan Quick

Powerplay Lines:

  1. JT Miller, Zac Jones, Chris Kreider, Mika Zibanejad, Artemi Panarin
  2. Will Cuylle, Jonny Brodzinski, Alexis Lafrenière, K’Andre Miller, Vincent Trochek

Penalty Kill Units:

  1. Mika Zibanejad, K’Andre Miller, Chris Kreider, Braden Schneider
  2. Vincent Trocheck, Urho Vaakanainen, JT Miller, Will Borgen

The Rangers are back on the road following a home dismantling at the hands of the Columbus Blue Jackets. The Blue Jackets won 7-3 in New York.
