The New York Rangers ended the Canadiens’ season Saturday evening in Madison Square Garden with a 3-1 victory in Game 6 of their opening round playoff series, taking the series 4-2. Carey Price will have to wait another year for a chance at a Stanley Cup run, and Henrik Lundqvist further cemented his reputation as an all-time great postseason performer.
If you’re going to steal a game, you need a little luck. When Alexei Emelin stepped up into a loose puck created by Philip Danault and Alex Radulov, it looked like fortune might be on the Habs’ side.
