The Red Wings play their fifth pre-season game tonight when they take on the Rangers at Madison Square Garden. Detroit beat New York 5-to-3 Sunday at Joe Louis Arena to even up their exhibition record at 2-and-2.

Red Wing’s forward Kris Draper won’t play and missed practice again Tuesday with a small groin tear. The 39-year old Draper, who has played nearly 11-hundred games with the Red Wings, could be out of the lineup until after the start of the regular season, which begins October Eighth against Anaheim in Detroit.
