Broadway hasn't been kind to the New York Rangers.

The Manhattan squad dropped its sixth straight playoff game at Madison Square Garden on Sunday, as the Rangers fell 3-1 to the Montreal Canadiens.

It's been nearly two years since the Rangers captured a postseason victory in front of their home crowd, with that win coming in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals against the Tampa Bay Lightning on May 16, 2015:

Game Date Opponent Score
1 Apr 16 2017 Canadiens L 3-1
2 Apr 21 2016 Penguins L 5-0
3 Apr 19 2016 Penguins L 3-1
4 May 29 2015 Lightning L 2-0
5 May 24 2015 Lightning L 2-0
6 May 18 2015 Lightning L 6-2

The Rangers are now down 2-1 in their series against the Canadiens. The two sides split the first two games in Montreal before the Rangers' loss at home on Sunday.

Game 4 comes Tuesday in New York.
