|
| | | NY RANGERS: LAST SEASON: 45-31-6, 96 points. Finished 2nd in Metropolitan Division, 5th in Eastern Conference. Lost to Los Angeles Kings in Stanley Cup finals.
COACH: Alain Vigneault, 2nd season with Rangers (45-31-6); 13th overall in NHL (467-319-102).
ADDED: D Dan Boyle, D Mike Kostka, D Matt Hunwick, C Chris Mueller, LW Tanner Glass, G Cedrick Desjardins, C Matthew Lombardi, RW Lee Stempniak, LW Ryan Malone.
LOST: C Brad Richards, RW Derek Dorsett, C Brian Boyle, D Anton Stralman, LW Benoit Pouliot, D Justin Falk, RW Arron Asham, LW Daniel Carcillo, D Raphael Diaz, C Darroll Powe.
PLAYER TO WATCH: Rick Nash. The top forward will be looking to bounce back from a disappointing postseason in which the 2002 No. 1 draft notched only three goals and 10 points in 25 games and heard boos from the crowd. The 30-year-old left wing has come to training camp looking thinner and fitter as he heads into his third season with the Rangers. Nash has four seasons left for big money on his current contract, so there is plenty of time for him to win over the Madison Square Garden faithful.
OUTLOOK: The Rangers will go as far as goalie Henrik Lundqvist, ''The King,'' will take them. The team has undergone major changes since the run to the finals, but with the strong core of returning veterans such as Nash, Martin St. Louis, and defensemen Dan Girardi and Ryan McDonagh, fortified by newcomers Dan Boyle, Lee Stempniak and Ryan Malone, New York could again be a tough out in the playoffs. A new captain is expected to be announced at the start of the season to replace the trio of alternate captains that took leadership roles after former captain Ryan Callahan was traded to Tampa Bay late last season for St. Louis. | | WINNIPEG: LAST SEASON: 37-35-10, 84 points; finished 11th in the Western Conference and missed the playoffs.
COACH: Paul Maurice, second season with the Jets, 478-469-99-73 overall.
ADDED: C Mathieu Perreault.
LOST: C Olli Jokinen, G Al Montoya.
PLAYER TO WATCH: Evander Kane: The 23-year old is entering his sixth NHL season, all with the Thrashers/Jets franchise. But the question surrounding Kane isn't where he'll start the season. Rather it's where he'll finish. Kane's name has been linked in trade rumors, leading the left winger to tell a Vancouver radio station in July he will operate under the assumption he is ''a Winnipeg Jet.''
OUTLOOK: The Atlanta/Winnipeg franchise has not qualified for the Stanley Cup playoffs since the 2006-07 season. That probably won't change in 2014-15. |

*Rangers-Jets Preview* ======================
By NICOLINO DIBENEDETTO STATS Writer
New York (47-21-7) at Winnipeg (39-25-12), 8:00 p.m. EDT
The New York Rangers know they're headed for the playoffs, but the Winnipeg Jets' bid to return to the postseason will likely go down to the wire.
The Jets look to bounce back from their first home loss in five games Tuesday night when the Rangers try to win for the first time since clinching a playoff spot.
New York (47-21-7) leads the Metropolitan Division by six points and is in the crowded race for the Presidents' Trophy with Anaheim, Montreal, Nashville, St. Louis and Tampa Bay.
The Rangers became the first team to secure a playoff berth after winning 5-1 at Ottawa on Thursday. However, they've lost twice since, falling 5-2 to Washington on Sunday after giving up three goals in the third period.
"There is still a lot to play for," coach Alain Vigneault said. "We are playing for home-ice advantage. We haven't secured that. You also want to go into the playoffs playing the right way."
The Jets (39-25-12) just want to get there for the second time in franchise history and first since 2006-07 when they were the Atlanta Thrashers. They hold the second wild-card spot in the Western Conference, trying to fend off Calgary and Los Angeles - which are also competing for third in the Pacific Division.
All three teams have six games left but Winnipeg's remaining schedule includes five against teams in the postseason chase, with the finale versus the Flames on April 11.
For now, the Jets are looking to rebound from Sunday's 4-3 loss to Chicago. They gave up the decisive goal with 31 seconds left in regulation after a collision between defenseman Toby Enstrom and the linesman led to the tying score earlier in the third.
"The biggest thing is picking yourself off the floor and getting excited again," captain Andrew Ladd told the team's official website. "Everybody was (ticked) off and (ticked) off, probably, when they woke up (Monday). ... You try and shut it off at some point, but it took me a long time to get to sleep. It's part of the gig.
"We talked about it and that's it. It's over with. We're getting excited to play the Rangers."
Winnipeg has won four of the past six meetings, including 1-0 in a shootout Nov. 1. The Jets haven't swept the season series since taking all four matchups in 2002-03.
Ondrej Pavelec made 38 saves and turned aside three of four shootout attempts against New York in November. He should be back in net after making 20 saves Sunday, ending his six-game winning streak which included a 1.15 goals-against average.
Blake Wheeler has scored in each of the last three games to give him nine goals and six assists in the past 13. The right wing had a career-high four-game scoring streak March 1-9, 2012.
His team-leading 25 goals are three shy of his career high set last season, but he's only scored three times in 21 meetings against New York.
Dustin Byfuglien has three points in the last two home games against the Rangers. He enters this one with three goals in the first two of this four-game homestand after scoring twice Sunday.
It's unclear if New York will have Henrik Lundqvist or Cam Talbot in net. Talbot made 26 saves Sunday, a day after Lundqvist had 26 in a 4-2 loss at Boston in his return from a neck injury.
Lundqvist owns a 1.30 GAA while winning two of his last three starts against Winnipeg, making 25 saves Nov. 1.
