"The Rangers gifted San Jose their first win of the season, more wins than the Rangers have at MSG this year, with poor and sloppy play. Now with Matt Rempe joining Vincent Trocheck on the injured list, Brennan Othmann has been recalled to hopefully inject some life into this listless offense. Othmann will join Will Cuylle in flanking Noah Laba for a line that should be fun to watch."
"Calgary should be better than they are, and there already rumors about them potentially blowing things up, starting with defenseman Rasmus Andersson. The Flames have a similar situation to the Rangers where they are producing chances but not finishing. This could be a very boring game, or perhaps the floodgates open for both teams and it's a shootout. Rangers lines"
The Rangers lost focus and allowed San Jose a surprising victory while carrying injury issues with Matt Rempe and Vincent Trocheck on injured reserve. Brennan Othmann was recalled to skate with Will Cuylle and Noah Laba to provide speed and offensive spark, while Taylor Raddysh remains a top-line winger. Calgary underperforms relative to expectations and faces trade rumors around Rasmus Andersson despite creating chances. Both teams generate opportunities but struggle to finish, leaving the game liable to be low-event or unexpectedly high-scoring if the floodgates open. Igor Shesterkin and Dustin Wolf are slated to start.
