FILE - In this Feb. 21, 2020, file photo, New York Rangers center Mika Zibanejad (93) skates for the puck during the first period of the team's NHL hockey game against the Carolina Hurricanes in Raleigh, N.C. The Rangers were playing some stellar hockey coming out of the All-Star break to move into playoff contention. After four months away during the NHL’s pause due the coronavirus pandemic, team president John Davidson liked what he saw in the first practice back. Now, Zibanejad and Artemi Panarin look to pick up where they left off as the Rangers have 2 1/2 weeks to prepare for an extended postseason that begins with a five-game series against Carolina in Toronto on Aug. 1.
