NHL action tops your sports on TV for this evening, a Tuesday after football and long before both baseball and the NCAA Basketball Tournament. Two of the local hockey squads take to the ice tonight.
↵The New Jersey Devils host the Carolina Hurricanes in a critical game (7 p.m. ET, MSG). The Devils are barely breathing in the NHL playoff race, and the next two weeks will determine whether or not they have a shot at the postseason.
↵The New York Islanders are also at home this evening, hosting the Toronto Maple Leafs (7 p.m. ET, MSG+).
↵It is a night off in the Big East for Syracuse, Rutgers, St. John's and Seton Hall, but Big East fans can still catch Cincinnati at DePaul (7 p.m. ET, ESPN2).
