The Rangers will play Slovan in Bratislava on Oct. 2, 2011 (11 a.m. in New York) as part of their European tour while Madison Square Garden undergoes renovations.
“HC Slovan Bratislava is proud to welcome one of the classiest NHL organizations to our arena at the beginning of the new season,” HC Slovan general manager Maros Krajci said in a statement. “Next season is an historic one in Bratislava, as we celebrate the 90th anniversary of playing hockey in our city.”
HC Slovan hosted the Lightning in 2008, losing, if I recall correctly, in a shootout.
