Fresh off their second round of cuts, the Rangers welcome the Devils to MSG for their third preseason game of the year. The big news for the Rangers this game is that Sammy Blais will make his preseason debut on the top line with Mika Zibanejad and Chris Kreider. This leaves the kid line intact as the second line tonight.

Brennan Othmann again gets AHL or healthy scratch linemates, which doesn’t bode well for him sticking with the team. The fourth line is rather interesting, with Karl Henriksson and Adam Edstrom. They are AHL and SHL bound, respectively, but they could be future bottom sixers.
