This game lacked a lot of the normal hype between the New York Islanders and New York Rangers. With both teams out of the playoffs, it didn’t have that same intense rivalry feel that it has over the past few years.
It was also a big night for Stan Fischler, his last game covering hockey. After over 60 years of covering the sport, the legend decided to call it a career. He received many well-deserved tributes throughout the broadcast tonight.
Kevin Hayes got the Rangers on the board in the first off a weird goal.
