Situated in the middle of the Metropolitan Division are the New York Rangers, who will round off this week’s top games list on Sunday when they host the Hurricanes.

The Hurricanes currently sit in the bottom of the division at 8-18-3, which trails just the Oilers as the worst record in the NHL this season.
