The Rangers fell to the brink of elimination with a 3-1 loss to the Lightning on Thursday night.
And then everyone started throwing hands.
The Blueshirts and Bolts scrapped on the ice after the final horn. At least that was a fair fight. Then some guy took this apparent vicious cheap shot on a Lightning fan while leaving Madison Square Garden.
What a disgrace. You can’t do that in a civilized society. Good on the fans who tended to the man who was knocked out. And good on the fan in the Mika Zibanejad jersey who gave an eyewitness account to Garden security.
