Toronto Maple Leafs Vs New York Rangers

Arena: Madison Square Garden
Time: 07 April, 2010 at 7:00 PM ET
League: NHL – United States of America
Last 10 matches: Toronto 5-3-2; New York 5-4-1.
Leafs goalie Jean-Sebastien Giguere stopped 21 of 22 shots on Tuesday and could hardly be blamed for the loss to the Flyers. Giguere has allowed only three goals in his last two appearances. … Rangers forward Brandon Prust, known more for his physical play, has scored in each of his last three games.Tuesday’s defeat marked the first time in seven games that the Rangers lost in regulation. They were 5-0-1 going into Buffalo.
No need to sugarcoat it here if the Rangers come up short on Wednesday night, their season is likely over. With Tuesday’s 5-2 loss at Buffalo, the Blueshirts remained three points behind the Boston Bruins for the eighth and final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. New York closes out its season with a home-and-home series against the Philadelphia Flyers, who moved four points ahead of the Rangers on Tuesday with a 2-0 win against the Leafs.
“This is our season,” center Brandon Dubinsky said. “Until all eight teams are locked, we’re going to continue to fight.”
This is the fourth and final meeting between the teams. The Rangers are 2-0-1, but dropped a 3-2 overtime decision at the Air Canada Centre on March 27 after blowing a 2-0 lead. Nikolai Kulemin scored the game-winner. Summary of the match will be on site soon..
