The first game in the NHL calendar for next Monday, April 7th corresponds to the clash between New York Rangers and Tampa Bay Lightning, teams from the Eastern Conference whose performances have been totally opposite during the current season. With that in mind, the team that will face the highest level of stress during this clash will be New York Rangers, as they currently are out of the playoffs’ spots.
In addition, it must be remarked that the Rangers lost a streak of 2 victories in a row after their most recent defeat against New Jersey Devils (4-0), a result that pushed them 4 points behind Montreal Canadiens in the Eastern Conference standings. For them, the only good and remarkable news is that Jonny Brodzinski has been able to become one of the most participative players in the offensive line,
Meanwhile, Tampa Bay Lightning is already qualified for the playoffs, however they struggled during their last 2 games in a row, in which they appeared to be more relaxed. However, they still need to defend their top 4 spot in the standings, so this will definitely be a must- win game for them. With that objective in mind, Tampa Bay is expected to carry on exploiting their offensive line whilst keeping a good defensive performance at the same time.
