When it's such a struggle to score goals, you're constantly flirting with disaster.
But yes, that was certainly a thrilling finish. (And I am certainly grateful that they not only won, but allowed me to get a good night's sleep to boot).
Yes, I agree. The Rangers' offense has been horrible for the most part - and the power play has been pathetic even though the game tying and winning goals were on the PP. But their defense and Hank have been outstanding.
Winning games like that and the triple OT game are what you need to win the Cup, and the Rangers are starting to get that team of destiny kind of feel. A Rangers - Devils conference finals series would be awesome.
