The Rangers played a solid game on Wednesday night, but lost to the Canucks in a weird third period. The process was there, but those are the bounces in hockey. Since the process was there, and has been for most of this month, the hope is the process continues in Vancouver and the Rangers get better results.
Luckily the Oilers are not a good team. They have great talent, but are very top heavy and have a terrible blue line and goaltending. Anders Nilsson has been solid of late, guiding the Oilers to four straight wins though. It’s not about who you meet, it’s when you meet them.
