The Rangers prospects will take on the Devils' prospects at the Rock team. New York is fielding a lineup straight from Hartford etc. with the regular team having the night off. The only skaters who have any true experience are Adam Erne and Casey Fitzgerald as well the netminders, Jonathan Quick and Louis Domingue. This doesn't mean the game doesn't mean anything as a few of those on the bubble get a chance to impress, made more materially important by the injury to Jimmy Vesey that will cost him a few weeks.
