The New York Rangers did not play poorly in their Game 3 loss to the New Jersey Devils, but failed to respond to several new challenges.
As the series still remains in their advantage at 2-1 heading into Monday’s pivotal Game 4, the Blueshirts need to solve not only goalie Akira Schmid but the Devils aggressive penalty kill.
“Obviously we knew this was going to be a challenge,” Jacob Trouba said afterwards. “It’s never easy winning four games. It’s a long series… We’ll come back and play Game 4.”
