Four nights removed from another rough performance, the New York Rangers hope a few days of extra rest and practice can get them trending upward Friday night when they host the Pittsburgh Penguins, who are on a season-high four-game winning streak.

The Rangers are 1-6-0 in their past seven gameswhile getting outscored 26-11 in those losses, including 9-2 in the first period.
