Mother Nature can be funny. The Rangers are in Winnipeg right now, where it is most certainly not snowing, or icing, or sleeting, or whatever this precipitation is currently. Meanwhile, most people won’t get home from their commutes in time for the late puck drop because the roads here are a mess. Funny how that works sometimes.
Fresh off Alex Georgiev’s highway robbery of two points on Sunday, the Rangers are facing Western Conference favorites Winnipeg tonight. I’m done trying to guess when the Rangers will win or lose, because I, 1) am never right, and 2) assume good teams should beat the Rangers. Novel concept. Never works out.
