Flames @ Rangers: Gamethread #8

Tonight, the Flames look to keep the good things going. They face the tough yet flawed New York Rangers at MSG tonight. Despite their possession stats, the Blueshirts are 5-3-1, good enough for second in the Metro division. They won’t start Henrik Lundqvist tonight as he played in yesterday’s game, so Antti Raanta will get the net. That’s a relief

The Flames are also doing some line jumbling. Brandon Bollig slots back in for Mason Raymond, certainly not to boost scoring or something. Derek Grant gets his first NHL start at the expense of Michael Ferland, who is week-to-week with an MCL sprain. Check out the rest of the changes in our preview.
