Rangers begin road swing tomorrow in New Jersey

The NY Rangers make their first trip to the Prudential Center tomorrow night. This is one of 5 road games in the next 6 days. After the game against New Jersey, they travel south a little more and take on the Flyers Thursday. Henrik Lundqvist should start both of those games, since he is coming off 5 days rest. Valiquette started, and won Saturday night up in Montreal. This is a critical stretch for the Blueshirts, who have done awful on the road this season, compiling a 1-5-1 record for only 3 points in 7 road games. They have to show up on road ice this time around as they are fighting for first place in the division, and since Philly is in first place, and they have a few extra games at hand against New York, it makes these games that much more important.
