Surging Zuccarello to top PP unit as Rangers face Avalanche (NYR at COL 9PM)
Rangers look for a better result this time against Colorado (Getty)
The Rangers look to build off of their wild 5-4 win in Toronto by facing off against the struggling Avalanche. Colorado has lost their last 3 games and were shut out twice in the process.
GAME 53: NEW YORK RANGERS at COLORADO AVALANCHE, Pepsi Center, Denver, CO. 9PM
Cam Talbot will be making his 5th straight start and is hoping to rebound off a very shaky performance against the Maple Leafs. He may get a boost from the newly formed power play units as the surging Mats Zuccarello is expected to get more ice time.
Another big road win will go a long way in the Rangers quest for a higher playoff seed come April.
