The New York Rangers are enjoying their best run of the 2025-26 season. The Blueshirts swept their four games last week, including a 4-2 road win against the powerful Minnesota Wild on Saturday, and are 6-1-2 since the NHL resumed play after the Olympic break.
They’ll play four more games this week as part of a grind that includes nine games in a stretch of 15 days – and on Monday night, they’ll welcome back the subject of perhaps their biggest trade in the past decade.
Artemi Panarin makes his return to Madison Square Garden when the Los Angeles Kings come to Madison Square Garden to complete their swing through the New York area.
