Determine the angular/ Radial nodes of n=4, l=2, and ml=-2

Does the m sub l value even matter?

If you are determining the number of nodes, and the p orbitals are degenerate, no. However, if the p orbitals are not degenerate then you will have three orbitals but pointed in three directions (along the three axes). YOu can read all about it here.
