In a game with massive playoff implications, the New York Rangers took on the Columbus Blue Jackets in both teams’ last game before the 4 Nations Face-Off.

Because even after taking a 4-3 win over the Blue Jackets on Saturday night at Nationwide Arena, the Blueshirts still lost four of their final seven games and will certainly have their work cut out for them in a 27-game sprint to the regular-season finish line when they return from the nearly two-week pause.

Will Cuylle scored twice in the third period as the Rangers picked up a much-needed 4-3 victory over the Blue Jackets at Nationwide Arena on Saturday night in the final game before the NHL 4 Nations Face-Off break.
