The last time the Rangers were in Chicago we were treated to one of the best games of the 2016-2017 season. The Rangers won that game in overtime thanks to a goal from Nick Holden and a 26-save from Antti Raanta.
Fast-forward to this season, the Rangers are riding a season-high six-game winning streak and will look to extend it against a Chicago team that has won just four of their last 10. They last played against the Devils where they fell lost 7-5 despite jumping out to an early 4-2 lead.

The Rangers have only played five games on the road and Kevin Shattenkirk talked about how important it is to win on the road. Shattenkirk called it “a good test” for the Rangers who will see three of their next four games away from Madison Square Garden.
Shattenkirk went on to talk about the Rangers struggles early in the season. “The tough part for me was to simplify even more and get a good shift where you have a couple of good passes and get off the ice.”
