Sens Four Out, Chase Wild Card vs Rangers

The Senators roll into Madison Square Garden clinging to 81 points, four back of the wild card in a brutal Atlantic scrum where every point feels like a street fight. Ottawa's scorching 16-5-4 run includes that 8-4 demolition of these same Rangers back in January, when Tim Stutzle lit it up and they peppered the net with 43 shots. The Rangers limp in on a four-game skid, leaning on Mika Zibanejad's 30 goals in his 1,000th game milestone, but their home ice has been a house of horrors at 9-17-7.
