Who said this was going to be an easy sweep?
After winning game one in somewhat less-than-convincing fashion, the Broadway Blueshirts made it clear in game two that everyone should put their brooms away.
Facing a battered and depleted Pittsburgh Penguins, it seemed like a team with the best regular season record could take care of first round business with ease. But as we should all know by now, the New York Rangers love to keep their fans guessing.
The Rangers were first on the board in each game, but that early momentum failed to be what they needed to win game two. Tonight, this team has to find ways to keep their energy going throughout all of sixty minutes and defense especially needs to make sure that the opponent doesn’t take any of that away.
