NEW YORK (Ticker) -- Jaromir Jagr and the New York Rangers hope to end their longest losing streak of the season when they host the Atlanta Thrashers on Sunday.

The Rangers opened their post-Olympic schedule with a convincing 6-1 triumph over the Philadelphia Flyers but have struggled since, tallying just four times over a four-game skid.

A contender for this season's Hart Trophy, Jagr has particularly slumped during the losing streak, scoring only one goal in the four games.

Rookie goaltender Henrik Lundqvist made 23 saves Saturday, but New York dropped a 1-0 decision to the Montreal Canadiens.

The Rangers hope to exact a measure of revenge against the Thrashers, who posted a 3-2 shootout triumph the last time the teams met on Wednesday.

Netminder Kari Lehtonen stopped 32 shots while Marian Hossa netted the game-winner in the shootout for Atlanta, which hopes to rebound from Friday's 3-1 loss to Ottawa.

Reigning Maurice Richard Trophy co-winner Ilya Kovalchuk scored the lone goal for the Thrashers, who trail the Tampa Bay Lightning (33-27-4) by four points for eighth place in the Eastern Conference standings.
