Game 21 Preview: Flyers @ Rangers
Alain Vigneault's Philadelphia Flyers (8-8-4) are in Manhattan on Wednesday to take on Gerard Gallant's New York Rangers (13-4-3). Game time at Madison Square Garden is 7:00 p.m. ET (NBCSP+, 93.3 WMMR).
The Flyers will look to end a six-game winless streak (0-4-2). The Rangers, who have points in eight of their last 10 games (7-2-1), will look to build on a current three-game winning streak. Tomorrow, in addition to linking to the Postgame 5, we'll have on HockeyBuzz an expanded analysis on what the Flyers did right/wrong in the first game of their December schedule. The team can ill-afford to dig the hole any deeper in the standings.
