The Rangers venture into the elements this Sunday when they put their perfect 4-0 outdoors record on the line at MetLife Stadium against the Islanders.
The Blueshirts will have to traverse one tunnel or bridge to get to the game while their opponents will have to traverse two, but the Islanders will be the home team because of the clause in the Rangers’ lease that they would forfeit their tax agreement with the city if they ever are designated the home team in a local venue outside Madison Square Garden.
Apparently having last change is not worth tens of millions of dollars.
This will be the Rangers’ third outdoor game under the Stadium Series imprimatur after having played a pair of Winter Classics.
