The Vancouver Canucks are looking to close out preseason with a win as they get set to host the New York Rangers.

Tonight's game can be seen on TSN or NHL Network (US) at 7PT/10ET.

Vancouver has struggled mightily this preseason as they have just one win in five games (1-4-0) and have only scored more than two goals once - in a 6-1 win over Phoenix.

They'll take on an Alain Vigneault coached Rangers team that has also struggled throughout preseason. The Rangers - like the Canucks - also enter tonight's game with just one win. They've played one less game, though.

Let's take a look at the Canucks lineup tonight:

Daniel Sedin - Henrik Sedin - Alex Burrows
Chris Higgins - Ryan Kesler - Jannik Hansen
David Booth - Mike Santorelli - Hunter Shinkaruk
Tom Sestito - Bo Horvat - Brad Richardson

Alex Edler - Kevin Bieksa
Frankie Corrado - Chris Tanev
Andrew Alberts - Yannick Weber

Roberto Luongo
Eddie Lack

This will be a big test for Hunter Shinkaruk and Bo Horvat, among others, as this will be their last chance to prove they should make the opening night roster.
