New York Rangers News

The good news for head coach Gerard Gallant is that only right wing Ryan Reaves is on the injury list for the Rangers. Leading scorer Chris Kreider (8 goals in 12 games) has hit the net only once in the last three games and he will have to step up if the Rangers want to be competitive against the Panthers.

Florida Panthers Stats & Form

Florida PanthersThe Florida Panthers have matched the best 11-game start in NHL history as they are 10-0-1 with their only loss coming after a shoot-out against the Boston Bruins a week ago. They have tied the 1994-95 Pittsburgh Penguins and 2006-07 Buffalo Sabres becoming only the third NHL team to reach 21 points after 11 games.

The Panthers are starting their four-game road trip with a visit to the Rangers. They are on top of the Eastern Conference and are coming off a 5-2 win over the Carolina Panthers who stand right behind them. The Panthers opened the game perfectly leading 4-0 after the first period which was enough to seal the deal.

The Panthers will be tested on the upcoming road trip but they don’t have much reason to be worried about as their best scorer Anthony Duclair has scored in 3 of the last 5 games with a total of 10 points. Goalie Sergei Bobrovsky and Center Sam Bennett will not suit up against the Rangers but coach Andrew Brunette has a deep roster to replace them.
