The New York Rangers posted a 3-2 win at the Nassau Coliseum that has to be the best “feel good” game of the season. It was a wild affair with periods of total domination by both teams, lost leads and outstanding special teams play. Goats became heroes and the Rangers won it on a Chris Kreider power play goal with 25 seconds left.
You can sense a change in this team going back to the loss in Calgary. The forecheck is better, defensive play has solidified and as usual, the goaltending has been stellar. There is a resilience and determination in this team that wasn’t present earlier in the season.
