Rangers at "the Rock"

According to Steve Zipay of Newsday, the lines will remain the same tonight. We'll see if John Tortorella shortens his bench on defense as he did against Ottawa the other night. There's only so long you can go with four defensemen. He's made no secret he thinks the Rangers need another experienced defenseman. "I'm not gonna lie to you, sure it is. It is a concern, I'm sure something will give sooner or later. We need to do our due diligence." He went on to say, "Obviously, we'd like to try to get some sort of veteran who can help out."

The Devils are coming off a 5-2 loss to the Philadelphia Flyers in Martin Brodeur's 1000th career game. The Blueshirts will be looking to keep the momentum from their own 5-2 win against Ottawa in the home opener. Brandon Dubinsky has looked very good between Vinny Prospal and Marian Gaborik and they will be the line to watch.
