Last 10 matches: Detroit 3-5-2; New York 4-6-0
Both teams play for the second time in as many nights, and neither has had an easy go of things early in the season. Detroit is dealing with injuries that have taken several key players out of the lineup, while New York is searching for a line other than the Marian Gaborik unit that can provide offense. The Rangers are also 24th in the League in team goals-against average despite having the accomplished Henrik Lundqvist in net. Gaborik leads the Rangers in goals (21), points (38), plus-minus (plus-8), power-play goals (9), shots (97) and shooting percentage (21.6 percent). Vinny Prospal has 20 assists, tops in that category.
These Original Six rivals meet for the only time this season. They last met at Joe Louis Arena on Oct. 18, 2008, with the Red Wings taking a 5-4 thriller on a Marian Hossa goal 23 seconds into overtime. Aaron Voros rallied the Rangers from a 3-2 deficit with a pair of goals early in the third, but Jiri Hudler scored on the power play with 3:39 remaining to force the extra period.
Veteran forwards Tomas Holmstrom and Kris Draper are producing for the Wings. Each has two goals and two assists in his last four games. Holmstrom leads the team with 11 goals after scoring on the power play against the Devils.

Gaborik assisted on Higgins’ goal against the Sabres and continues to be a model of consistency for the Rangers. His 38 points are second in the League to Joe Thornton and he has at least one point in 25 of New York’s 28 games this season. Goal’s highlights, results and more will be on site, as soon as posible.. stay tuned.
