Ryan McDonagh hopes tonight's date with the Islanders leads to a better start for the Rangers, who have allowed a goal in the first minute of play in two of the last four games.
"It's an opponent we're pretty familiar with," McDonagh said of the team from Brooklyn. "We saw them a few times in preseason and a lot of familiar faces. Hopefully [it's] a game that brings a lot of emotion out of our team here tonight and gets us going right from the first drop of the puck."
