Doesn't matter if the Rangers take care of business vs. the inferior teams they have the rest of the season.
Canes/B's have a rematch on Tuesday. As long as the Bruins lose on Saturday vs. the Panthers, the Rangers should be in good shape for the #1 seed in the East.
Bruins last 3 games @ Pens, @ Caps, Senators.
Ideal situation would be B's win tonight, Rangers win tomorrow (open up 7 point lead on Canes), B's lose Saturday, B's lose Tuesday vs. Canes (Rangers could/should have 5 point lead on B's going into Tuesday night)
