'Since losing on Saturday afternoon, the Rangers and Mike Dunham have registered consecutive shutouts to keep some heat on the Islanders. Last night's victory moved the Blueshirts within four points of the eighth-place Islanders, who will make up one of the two games they have in hand tonight in Montreal. The Rangers, 7-3-2-1 in their last 13, have seven games remaining, their next in Philadelphia on Saturday afternoon.'
