Our beloved Rangers take on the Washington Alexander’s Capitals tonight at the Garden. Game time is at 7, and is on Versus. Lundqvist is in goal and so is Simeon Varlamov. Jose Theodore has a personal matter to deal with. We wish him the best.

Alex Ovechkin is expected to be back, but Alexander Semin is not a given. I expect the Rangers lines to be the same as the Ottawa game:

Lisin-Prospal-Gaborik

Parenteau-Higgins-Kotalik

Avery-Anisimov-Callahan

Brashear-Boyle-Voros

D-pairings, as always, will remain the same. This is the first time the Rangers played the Caps since the come-from-behind, two goals by Gaborik win. The Rangers should pressure Ovechkin a lot, because we’re not sure how he’ll react his first game back from injury. This is a big game for the Rangers, not only to gain points, but to build off the momentum from the Ottawa game. Crazy prediction: Aaron Voros scores a goal.

Use this as your open thread for the game. Watch, discuss, have fun. I wonder how many comments will be dedicated to the hatred of Versus. Should be fun. Let’s do it to it, Rangers.
