Preview Roundups
January 19, 2020
Boston at Pittsburgh 12:30 PM ET
The Boston Bruins had turned in two of their more ragged efforts of the season before responding with a 4-1 victory over Pittsburgh on Thursday in what was tantamount to a statement game. The Atlantic Division-leading Bruins are seeking to repeat that effort and complete a three-game season sweep in a rematch at the Penguins on Sunday afternoon.
NY Islanders at Carolina 5:00 PM ET
The Carolina Hurricanes will play host to the New York Islanders Sunday as they attempt to adjust to life without All-Star defenseman Dougie Hamilton. The Hurricanes lost their third straight game Friday - a 2-1 overtime setback to Anaheim - and barely held a wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference entering the weekend.
Winnipeg at Chicago 7:00 PM ET
The Winnipeg Jets look to turn things around after dropping three of four as they begin a three-game road trip leading into the All-Star break Sunday night against the surging Chicago Blackhawks and Patrick Kane, who is one point from 1,000 in his career. The Jets, who also visit Carolina (Tuesday) and Columbus (Wednesday) on the important trip, lost the first two games during their slump by a goal before getting routed by red-hot Tampa Bay 7-1 on Friday.
Columbus at NY Rangers 7:00 PM ET
The Columbus Blue Jackets are moving up the ladder in the Metropolitan Division and will look to climb up another rung when they travel to Madison Square Garden to take on the New York Rangers on Sunday night. The Rangers also are heating up and will be bidding for a season high-tying third straight victory against the surging Blue Jackets.
