When: Monday, April 1, 2013 Time:A6:00 p.m. CST Where: Madison Square Garden, New York, New York Records: Winnipeg Jets (18-16-2 a third in East), Nyc Rangers (16-15-3- 8th in East) Television/Radio: MSG, TSN-JETS/TSN 1290 The Story: Itas planning to feel longer than the usual New York second for the Winnipeg Jets over the next two days while they enjoy today to the New York Rangers at Madison Square Garden followed closely by game contrary to the New York Islanders tomorrow night at Nassau Coliseum. Although the Carolina Hurricanes are actually only four factors behind them for the Southeast Division guide after beating the Jets 3-1 on Saturday evening at the MTS Centre but nevertheless keep down 3rd place in the Eastern Conference games have been lost two by the Jets in a line. Winnipeg has been outscored 7-1 in their last two losses to the Hurricanes and Pittsburgh Penguins, fans that have been Jetted by an alarming trend in Winnipeg feeling just a little concerned today. Tonightas game is entered by the Rangers in 8th position in the East but losers of these last two activities, most recently a loss to the Montreal Canadiens on CBCas Hockey Night in Canada. Nyc has gained only three of the last twenty games so tonightas sport will undoubtedly be slump-buster for at least one team with less than one month to go in the 2013 regular time. As they have lots of cover place nyc is anticipated to be a buyer before Wednesdayas business contract. The Rangers are said to be looking to obtain a top-four defenseman as Marc Staal is still out of the line-up with an eye injury and it's still unknown if he will return to the line-up before the Stanley Cup Playoffs begin. Staal hasn't performed since March 5 against the Philadelphia Flyers when he got a puck to the attention. Today the Jets, on the other hand, cannot seem to buy a goal. Olli Jokinen obtained his 7th purpose of the season on Saturday but Winnipeg continues to challenge offensively while the number-1 distinct Andrew Ladd, Bryan Little and Blake Wheeler has fallen right into a prolonged decline. Think about the followinga. Blake Wheeler does not have any objectives and two assists over the last six games. Phil Ladd has no objectives and two assists in his last six games and has not obtained in his last 9 games. Bryan Little has one purpose and two assists in his last six games but has no details in his last three games. Can I go on? Alright.AKyle Wellwood has zero points in his last six games. Nikolai Antropov has one goal and no aids in his last six games. Alexander BurmistrovAhas no targets and one help out with his 13 games. It is safe to state that the Jets have to bust out offensively and rapid because the next two games contrary to the New York Rangers and a long way will be gone by New York Islanders in determining if they will be playing meaningful games come May.
