Disappointing result tonight. The amount of really good things they did tonight was completely offset by just a couple mistakes. The Penguins made them pay. That’s how these games tend to go.
Despite the Rangers recent spat of playoff games at MSG, I still maintain that the Rangers need to play 5v5 in order to win this series. The power play could give the Rangers a little bit of a boost, though playoff games can be won without it.
