"The Rangers have had a busy week, playing their third game in four nights and fourth game in six nights. They get a nice break after their trip to Pittsburgh today, getting four days off before welcoming Carolina to MSG as the final game before the three week Olympic break. The Penguins are likely making the playoffs this year, which is funny since the Rangers and Penguins traded coaches in the offseason with Dan Muse heading to Pittsburgh."
