Players To Watch:
Dallas Stars
During Dallas’ four-game winning streak, Matt Duchene has three multipoint games and seven points (2g, 5a) overall. The 33-year-old pivot leads the Stars with 37 points in 38 games played. Duchene has had to pick up the slack with both of his linemates sidelined with injuries.
New York Rangers
Chris Kreider has had a tough season for the Rangers, the power forward is on pace for 32 points this season after having 39 GOALS last year. The rugged left wing has shown signs of life lately, with points in three straight games. Kreider and the Rangers hope the veteran winger is turning the corner and can produce in the second half of the season as the Rangers try to push for a playoff spot.
