(Sports Network) - The New York Rangers will try to take a commanding lead in their best-of-seven Eastern Conference semifinal series, as the top-seeded club visits the Washington Capitals for todays Game 4 battle at Verizon Center. The seventh-seeded Capitals earned a split of the first two games in New York, but the Rangers would gain the advantage with a victory in Wednesdays memorable Game 3.

New York would like to extend their lead to 3-1 with a win this afternoon in D.C. A victory today by the Blueshirts would set up an elimination game for the club when it hosts the Capitals in Game 5 on Monday. Marian Gaborik played the hero in Game 3, tallying with 5:19 remaining in the third overtime to give the Rangers the edge in the series. Rangers center Brad Richards gained control of the puck off a Dan Girardi wraparound to the left rear of the Washington net, and fed in front for Gaborik, who ripped a wrister home to cap the marathon contest. It was the fifth-longest game in Rangers history. The score prevented the Blueshirts from sharing a slice of dubious NHL history.
