Playoff scenarios
The Rangers (with 84 points) need at least one point, with an overtime loss or victory against Philadelphia tonight at the Garden, to remain alive in the playoff race.
The Rangers cannot catch Philadelphia (86 points) unless they get four points against the Flyers in two games this weekend. The home-and-home series concludes Sunday afternoon in Philadelphia.
The Rangers can catch the Canadiens if they win their final two games and Montreal does not get a point in its last game.
The Rangers can still catch Boston if the Bruins lose their remaining two games in regulation and the Rangers get at least three points against the Flyers.
