Thursday 10th March 03:30 - 06:30 GMT
Despite upsetting the number one Western Conference seed from San Jose last year, the Anaheim Ducks were far away from overcoming the high scoring Sharks last week. On Sunday at 10 p.m. GMT, the Ducks will be in New York to face the Rangers in front of their enthusiastic home crowd at Madison Square Garden.
Even though the Rangers started into the season with a 3-2 loss versus Sidney Crosby and the Pittsburgh Penguins, the team immediately bounced back in their remaining first week games versus the Ottawa Senators and New Jersey Devils. Winning 5-2 and 3-2 respectively, recently acquired All-Star Marian Gaborik was able to carry the Rangers to a fairly successful season start with two goals and two assists.
In contrast, the Anaheim Ducks are still waiting for their first win of the season and have shown very little of their up-tempo hockey thus far. More specifically, the team around Ryan Getzlaf lacked any consistent offensive flow and showed surprisingly significant weaknesses on the defensive end of the ice.
Taking everything into consideration, fans around the league might get to see a highly contested hockey game between the Ducks and Rangers. Both teams will most likely be in the playoff race of their respective conference and feature their fare share of individual talent. Thus, this relatively even match-up will showcase a Ducks team powered by All-Stars Ryan Getzlaf and Scott Niedermayer hoping to secure a crucial win at Madison Square Garden on Sunday at 10 p.m. GMT.
