Rangers look to stun in-form Bruins

The Rangers have just won three consecutive games and have won 4 of their past 5, including an amazing comeback from 4-0 down to a 6-5 victory against the Canadiens in Montreal. This afternoon, they look to continue their streak against the Boston Bruins who are also enjoying a great run of form as well.

After such positive results, David Quinn has opted to keep the exact same lineup that earned the victory against the Hurricanes at MSG on Wednesday. Zibanejad will remain on the 1st line alongside Chris Kreider and Pavel Buchnevich in his second game after coming back from injury.

"He just gives us so much more depth. It's amazing what one center can do to your whole lineup. Your lineup looks a lot longer and a lot deeper.", said Quinn about Zibanejad's return.

Artemi Panarin will play a second consecutive game on New York's 2nd line composed of he, Filip Chytil and Ryan Strome who was moved from center to the wing following Zibanejad's return.

Here is the Rangers' projected lineup for this afternoon's game according to NHL.com correspondent Matt Kalman:

Chris Kreider - Mike Zibanejad - Pavel Buchnevich
