Canucks and Rangers vie for NHL playoff positions

The New York Rangers are set to face the Vancouver Canucks in an important NHL game. Both teams are hoping to secure a spot in the playoffs as the season comes to a close. The Canucks currently have 76 points and are just one point away from being in the playoffs. They recently lost to the St. Louis Blues, despite a late goal from Brock Boeser that forced the game into overtime. Unfortunately for Vancouver, they lost in the extra period. The Rangers have 72 points and are two points shy of the playoff cutoff in the Eastern Conference. They are tied with the New York Islanders. Recently, they went through a three-game losing streak, which hurt their playoff chances. In their last game, they lost 4-3 to the Toronto Maple Leafs, with Artemi Panarin scoring his 31st goal. Earlier this season, the Rangers won against the Canucks 4-3 in a match held in Vancouver. Fans can watch the game live on Fubo, although there may be regional restrictions.
