COL Developments: As Valeri Nichushkin departs into the assistance program, team gets back Artturi Lehkonen and welcomes in Zach Parise. Winners of three straight. PHI, WSH, LA, scoring six per game in this stint.
New York Rangers: (30-16-3, First in Metropolitan) HC: Peter Laviolette Top Performers: Artemi Panarin (30-36-66 –2), Mika Zibanejad (15-31-46 +9), Vincent Trocheck (15-31-46), Chris Kreider (23-22-45 +13), Adam Fox (8-29-37 +4), Alexis Lafreniere (12-17-29 –10), Erik Gustafsson (4-19-23 +2), Blake Wheeler (9-11-20)
NYR Developments: In a fall of late, seem to be catchable by the Hurricanes? Filip Chytil’s season is done just after 10 games. Concussion issues are no joke, so hopefully he is going to be back at the start of the 2024-2025 season. A 4-6-2 stretch.
Goaltending Matchup: Alexandar Georgiev (27-11-2, 2.91 GAA, .898 SV, 2 SO) vs. Igor Shesterkin (19-12-1, 2.86 GAA, .899 SV)
