Key Stories to Watch
- The Avs are 2-1-1 in their last four games and are coming off their second regulation loss this year. They defeated the Rangers at Ball Arena more than two weeks ago.
- Colorado called up Tristen Nielsen on Thursday, which could mean one of the forwards who dressed against the Islanders might not play in this game.
- New York has won five of its last six games and has 21 goals in that stretch. Offense was a problem early in the season, but that’s gotten figured out as of late. The Rangers are still the league’s worst team at home, going 3-8-1 at MSG.
