Heading into the end of Week 4, NY snags a rather high spot in Pierre LeBrun's official NHL power rankings for ESPN.com, while Colorado still lags way behind (out of a total 30 teams):

Rangers (8): "Make it nine out of a possible 10 points in the past five games for the Rangers, who get to muscle up at home against the first-place Capitals on Tuesday night. Must-watch game, for sure."

Record: 8-2-2 (2nd in Metropolitan Division).

Avalanche (28): "The sobering reality of the Avs' dismal opening month is that they play in the Central Division, where all of the other six teams are playoff contenders. The Avs just can't drop any farther."

Record: 4-8-1 (7th in Central Division).

Tonight's game will be broadcasted live on local sports channels Alt2 and MSG2.
