Sitting atop the Metropolitan Division and with one of the leagues best records, it may be hard to find fault with the New York Rangers play.Recent results at Madison Square Garden seem to indicate otherwise.The Rangers look to halt a three-game home losing streak as they meet the surging Ottawa Senators for the first time this season Sunday night.New York won six of its last nine against Ottawa, but the three losses all came in Manhattan. Thats where New York (15-6-1) got off to a hot start this season, winning eight of its first nine and outscoring the opposition 42-19.However, the Rangers were outscored 13-6 in consecutive losses to the struggling Vancouver Canucks, the Florida Panthers and the defending Stanley Cup champion Pittsburgh Penguins. Ottawa comes into this contest in position for a season-high fourth straight victory.A reason for those struggles could be traced to Michael Grabner, J.T. Miller and Kevin Hayes all slumping simultaneously.From Oct. 13 through Nov. 6, nine Rangers had at least seven points at Madison Square Garden. Miller led the way with 12 points (five goals, seven assists), followed by Hayes with 11 (five goals, six assists) and Grabner -- enjoying a career resurgence -- had eight, including six goals.Over the last three home games, though, Miller and Grabner havent had a point and Hayes recorded one assist.In the Rangers 3-2 victory over the Philadelphia Flyers on Friday, Hayes scored and Miller drew an assist, but the star of the game was Henrik Lundqvist as he made 19 of his season-high 40 saves in the third period.Tonight we werent great; our goaltender was, Rangers defenseman Marc Staal told the New York Daily News.With a minimum of 35 career appearances, Lundqvist has a losing record against only one opponent. In 36 games against the Senators, Lundqvist is 15-17-3 with a 2.08 goals-against average, .931 save percentage and one shutout. When he faces them at home, though, King Henrik is 5-12-2 with a 2.32 GAA and .921 save percentage.Lundqvist needs one win to tie Mike Vernon for 13th on the career victories list with 385.Antti Raanta, who relieved Lundqvist in Wednesdays 6-1 home loss to Pittsburgh, gave up five goals and lost in his only appearance against the Senators in 2014 while with the Chicago Blackhawks.Ottawa (13-7-1) is coming off Saturdays 2-1 victory over the Carolina Hurricanes. Craig Anderson stopped 32 shots and Kyle Turris broke a 1-1 tie with 3:32 to play.In eight career starts at Madison Square Garden, Anderson is 6-1-1 with a 1.59 GAA, a .951 save percentage and two shutouts. However, Anderson has been on the losing end in each of his last two games there, surrendering six goals.Ottawa coach Guy Boucher did not immediately say if Anderson or Mike Condon would start in goal. Condon hasnt played since giving up a season-high five goals in a loss to the Nashville Predators on Nov. 17.Thats why youve got flights, Boucher said. It gives you a bit of time to reflect on what you want to do the next day.Ottawa has surrendered the opening goal in 11 straight games, posting a 6-4-1 record.You dont want to get in the habit of playing from behind, but were showing good mental toughness by not letting a goal affect the way we play, Anderson said.The Senators also are 2-0-0 in the second games of back-to-back contests this season.Surprisingly, the Senators most productive scorer at Madison Square Garden is Chris Kelly with seven goals, including a pair of game-winners, and two assists in 11 games. Kelly, who returned to Ottawa as a free agent in July after five-plus seasons with the Boston Bruins, has a goal and two assists in 21 games but hasnt registered a point in 13 straight.New Yorks Matt Puempel wont have to wait long for a chance to face his former team. Puempel, a first-round pick by Ottawa in 2011, was claimed off waivers by the Rangers on Monday, one day after ex-Senator Mike Zibanejad suffered a broken leg thats expected to sideline him for up to two months.Puempel, who failed to earn a point in 13 games with Ottawa, scored in his first game with the Rangers on Friday -- and took a shot at his former organization.They let you play here. They let you play to your strengths, Puempel told the New York Post on Saturday. They know there are going to be mistakes. Theyre not barking at you every time you come off the ice. Its beneficial.The Rangers acquired Zibanejad in July for Derick Brassard and swapped picks in the 2018 NHL Draft. Zibanejad, a two-time 20-goal scorer at 23 years old, had five goals and 10 assists in 19 games.Brassard is struggling with his new club, posting three goals, including one on the power play, and six assists in 21 games.The 29-year-old Brassard averaged 21.3 goals and 33 assists in three full seasons with New York from 2013-16. He also provided a spark on the power play, leading the team with eight man-advantage goals last season and tying for the team lead with seven in 2013-14.

With North Carolina bringing its high-powered offense to town, Florida State coach Jimbo Fisher took time out from his weekly session with the media to dispel any talk about the job opening that came up this week when LSU fired Les Miles.Im not talking about LSU. Were talking about North Carolina, said Fisher, an assistant at LSU from 2000 through 2006, adding that he also has not had contact with anyone from LSU nor would he listen if they called him or his agent.Im coaching football, he said. I dont listen.Fisher and his 12th-ranked Seminoles look to have enough on their hands without that distraction when they take on the Tar Heels at 3:30 p.m. ET at Doak Campbell Stadium in Tallahassee, Fla.The Seminoles badly need this one because they are already 0-1 in the ACC and another loss in conference play would all but knock them out of the running for any sort of title in 2016, including the national playoffs.And while none of the current players were around the last time Florida State played North Carolina in 2010, there is one detail about that game that Fisher likely will bring up: the Seminoles lost, 37-35.Finally, theres this extra bit of clutter for Fisher to try to eliminate this week: He has beaten every team in the ACC at least once since taking over in 2010 -- except North Carolina, that is.It doesnt matter, Fisher said. I dont care what everybody else does, we have to get better at what were doing.The Tar Heels are unranked but have won three in a row since dropping their opener to Georgia.Their quarterback, junior Mitch Trubisky, is shaping up to be one of the best passers that the Seminoles may face all year. Hes averaging 326 yards passing a game and has already thrown 10 touchdowns without an interception.Hes big, hes strong and hes hard to get down in the pocket, Fisher said. I like him, but hes going to be a pain in the tail.The Tar Heels come into their game buoyed byy the confidence of their comeback win over Pitt.dddddddddddd. Trailing by 13 points with less than eight minutes left in the game, the Heels engineered two touchdown drives, the second of which included three fourth-down conversions. North Carolina also held visiting Pitt to a three-and-out in between.We found out a lot, said junior wide receiver Austin Proehl, who had one of the critical fourth-down receptions on the final drive. We found out who we were as a team.The Seminoles got a confidence boost of their own in their last outing in running up a 55-35 win at South Florida. Running back Dalvin Cook appears to be just fine.After a hot and cold first three weeks of the season, the junior speedster slashed and dashed for a career-high 267 yards for his first 100-plus-yard rushing performance of the year -- something noticeably missing from the preseason Heisman hopefuls resume the first three games.Some reports said Cook has dealing with an undisclosed injury. Others speculated the almost 20 pounds of muscle he added during the offseason were slowing him down.Cook basically laughed off all of it.I dont know why it was a question, he said. I go out there and play the same football every week, Cook said. Whether its to run the ball or (catch) the ball, I just did a better job this week.Cook was also the teams leading receiver in the game with four catches for 62 yards, and he scored an electrifying touchdown on the Seminoles first offensive play -- a 75-yard gallop untouched into the end zone to tie the game early at 7-7.Now to what needs fixing: Florida States defense, which has given up 98 points and 980 yards in its last two outings and gave up an 84-yard pass play on South Floridas first play last week.We got to be more physical up front, Fisher said.
