Preview: Ducks at Rangers, Monday, Dec. 15, 2025 NEW YORK (Interstat) — The Anaheim Ducks, riding a seesaw of recent results, will look to steady themselves against a struggling New York Rangers squad when the teams meet at Madison Square Garden on Monday night. The Ducks (19-13-0) arrive after a 4-1 loss at New Jersey on Saturday snapped a modest two-game win streak. Their December has been a study in inconsistency, mixing decisive wins and losses, including a 7-0 defeat to Utah and a 7-1 victory over Chicago. Anaheim’s offense will lean on forward Troy Terry, who has points in three of his last four games, including a goal on a team-high six shots against the Devils. The Rangers (15-17-0), meanwhile, are mired in a three-game skid and have been shut out in consecutive contests, most recently a 3-0 loss in Chicago on Wednesday. Scoring has been a persistent issue, placing a heavy burden on goaltender Igor Shesterkin. Despite a 2-3-0 record in his last five starts, Shesterkin has maintained a .919 save percentage in that span, giving his team a chance in close games. New York’s success likely hinges on whether its attack can provide him support. The matchup pits one of the league’s hotter teams on the road (Anaheim is 7-3-0 in its last 10 games away from home) against a Rangers club desperate to reverse its fortunes at home, where it is just 8-9-0 this season. This game opens a critical four-game road trip for the Ducks, who visit Columbus on Tuesday. The Rangers continue a homestand before embarking on a lengthy six-game trip later in the week. Puck drop is scheduled for 7 p.m. EST at Madison Square Garden.
