In case you missed it, and if you did, I’m sorry you missed it, the NY Rangers took down the NJ Devils in Game 1 last night by a 5-1 score. It wasn’t a dominating effort, as the Devils certainly had a bunch of opportunities, including multiple powerplays, but it was simply good enough at 5v5 with special teams and Igor Shesterkin doing the rest. It stuck to the formula, which was the key in not just the Rangers Game 1 win, but to how the Rangers will make a run in the playoffs.
