Before Monday night\u2019s slate of games, the Rangers\u2019 22 points were tied with the Islanders and Red Wings, which ranks toward the top of the NHL. Their 56 total goals were tied for 13th with the Sharks and Senators, while their 51 goals against were good for the eighth least in the league along with the Maple Leafs.\u00a0<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>Judging by the Rangers\u2019 lines and defensive pairs at practice on Monday, Ryan Reaves, Vitali Kravtsov and Libor Hajek will likely be scratched against the Kings on Tuesday night at Crypto.com Arena. The lines were the same as they were in the Rangers\u2019 2-1 win over the Sharks on Saturday, which Gallant referred to as \u201cthe best game\u201d since their season opener against the Lightning.\u00a0<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>The Rangers have their fifth back-to-back set of the season on Tuesday against the Kings and Wednesday against the Ducks. In the first game of a back-to-back schedule, the Rangers are currently 2-1-1.\n                        <\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
