The NHL season is barely a week old, and the Rangers are back on Garden ice for a Sunday-evening regular-season game against the Utah Mammoth, the league's newest name. Opening week brings the fresh-season buzz of new lines and a crowd that has been waiting all summer. If Harry Styles has had the building all weekend, this is the night it turns back into a hockey barn.
What to expect
Expect a full Garden, the Rangers goal horn and chants rolling down from the upper bowl, and an early Sunday puck drop that has you out by late evening. The Chase Bridges hang right over the ice, and the concourses fill with blue jerseys during intermissions.
