The New York Rangers will play the Tampa Bay Lightning on Tuesday night in Game 6 of their NBA Stanley Cup Playoffs series, with the Rangers in a win or go home situation.

Today's big Game 6 takes place from the Amalie Arena in Tampa, Florida and has a start time of 8 p.m. ET. The game can be watched on the NBC Sports network but can also be watched online through the live stream link below.

The situation has become a familiar one for the Rangers; facing elimination in a best of seven series has become their speciality. They will not be fazed by the situation they find themselves in tonight, coming into the game 2-3 down, and the Tampa Bay Lightning will also not be taking anything for granted and will know how difficult it is to eliminate the Rangers even from this kind of position.

The Rangers come into this game having won every single one of their past six Game 6 or Game 7 situations. That's a record that goes all the way back to the first round of the Playoffs last season when they took on the Philadelphia Flyers.

Even though the Lightning now have two chances at claiming one more win against the Rangers, they will not be taking tonight lightly.

Lightning forward Brenden Morrow has said, "You want to take advantage of this game, and we know it's going to be the toughest one. The elimination game is always the toughest. But you want to have success and play the type of game we did and worry about keeping the puck out of the net, and we always find a way to get some (goals)."

The Rangers meanwhile can only look as far forward as the game tonight. However, if they do manage to claim a road win here in the Amalie Arena then their reward will be to take the series to a winner takes all Game 7 at Madison Square Garden on Friday.
