Rolling into New York with a nine-game point streak, the Canes will look to finish with a purpose against the retooling Rangers in the midst of a freefall.

The Canes' attempt to snag Panarin from a division rival has proven fruitless, but it might not be the worst thing in the world, considering how it played out.

With the clock slowly ticking before roster moves halt at 3 pm, the Canes are actively trying to get something done before pausing for the next three weeks.

Staal scores the winner late in the third period to back a three-point night from Aho, a two-goal game from Jarvis, and another excellent start by Bussi.

In their penultimate game ahead of the Olympics, the Canes welcome the Senators to town in the hopes of showing a better effort than they gave in Ottawa.
