In Raleigh, Aaron Voros in for Donald Brashear

          RALEIGH--- For the first time in 14 games, left wing Aaron Voros iss in the lineup. Voros has played just 19 games, with one assist and 32 penalty minutes. Donald Brashear had played the last 10 games, during which he recorded no points, and is a healthy scratch..

          John Tortorella: "The biggest thing is we need to be committed physically, mentally and emotionally...the game isn't really about xs and Os, it's about winning battles."

         "I thought we were turning the corner (before the Phildelphoia game). We just didn't fall off, we went for a long ride. The good news is it only cost us two poitns, not 10 points."

         The Rangers were loose and spirited in the pre-game, playing a rousing hallway soccer game...Line to watch for the Canes: Staal on right wing with Matt Cullen and Jussi Jokinen: 16 points in laast two games.
