New York at San Jose

A 3,000 mile trip for the New York Rangers, the end of a three-game trek out West. They come off a 4-3 loss at the L.A. Kings, blowing a 3-1 third-period lead. Goalie Henrik Lundqvist made 33 saves but suffered his fourth consecutive loss, saddled with a 3.76 goals-against average in March. The Rangers are 3-7 in the third game of a three-in-four situation. They face a strong San Jose team that is fourth in the NHL in goals scored, #15 in goals allowed and fifth on the power play. San Jose will be in the playoffs and the Sharks are pushing Anaheim for second place in the Pacific. San Jose has averaged 3.5 goals during a 9-3-3 stretch at home, so grab home ice against the road weary visitors and play San Jose.
