GREENBURGH, N.Y. — No single player can extend the Rangers season, which is dangling by a thread.
Even if Henrik Lundqvist allows just a single goal on Saturday in Game 5 of the best-of-seven series that the Penguins lead 3-1, the Rangers will need two to win.
For a team that has scored just seven goals in the first four games, more than two goals would be a bonus.
One of the focal points of the offensive struggle has been the power play, which is 1 for 16, and coach Alain Vigneault, in an effort to keep the season alive and force a Game 6 back in Madison Square Garden Monday, is considering all options.
