The NY Rangers entered Game 3 of their Stanley Cup Qualifiers series against the Carolina Hurricanes needing a win to stay alive. Even with Igor Shesterkin returning to the net, it was difficult to envision the Blueshirts turning this series around. Especially given how stifling and dominant Carolina was in games 1 and 2. But the Rangers surprised us for two periods at least. They gave us a brief glimpse into the future of this young team that’s still at least a step or two away. In the end, the Rangers were swept by the Hurricanes.
