After a pretty bad loss in Minnesota over the weekend, the Rangers bounced back with a win over Detroit on Tuesday night. Now the Rangers have a chance at some revenge against the Wild, as they come to visit MSG for their one trip of the season. The Blueshirts were humming right along against Detroit, but now are without Jonathan Quick as well, meaning Louis Domingue gets the start.

Minnesota is a lot better than their record would indicate, and they have some solid talent up front. They aren’t a true Stanley Cup contender, but they should be a playoff team that can win a round or two in the right situation. They shouldn’t be taken lightly due to their record.

With Domingue in net, expect the Rangers to pay extra attention to structure and defense. Hopefully not at the expense of goal scoring.
