There has been one stated goal for Dan Boyle since he signed his two-year, $9 million contract with the Rangers on July 1, 2014.
Now at 39 years old, Boyle just wants another chance to win a Stanley Cup.
Turns out that after a year and a half and one trip to the conference final, the goal is still feasible and within reach. But the path to it has been wrought with potholes.
“I don’t know, we went to Stanley Cup semifinals last year, so as far as I’m concerned, that’s all I care about,” Boyle said after Monday’s practice, with him set to stay in the lineup for the second consecutive game in Tuesday’s Garden match against the Hurricanes.
