GAME 60: BLUE JACKETS VS. RANGERS

The Blue Jackets (38-16-5) head to Manhattan on Sunday for a 5 p.m. start against the New York Rangers (40-19-2). Both teams are on the tail end of a back-to-back weekend, facing Metro Division opponents two nights in a row.
Just one point separates the two teams in the standings, and while the Blue Jackets have two games in hand, it's the time of year when every point matters, particularly when it can come from a team ahead of you.
"We haven't been on the road in a little while," Nick Foligno said. "I think it will be nice to be together again and find a way to get some big wins that we need. Every day is another opportunity for us to move up in the standings or continue to play well and that has to be our focus."
