Both teams are going into the game with pressure to win. The Rangers are currently fourth in the Eastern Conference and with a win will be tied in second place with Toronto. The Jest, on the other hand, are still theoretically in the playoff conversation but they will probably finish short of it even if they win all remaining games on the schedule.
