The three things that won the Rangers the first round series against the Devils are the three things that they stopped doing in the second round v the Penguins. (Not counting the anemic power play. That's been a nightmare all season.) They're not clearing the crease, they're not crashing the net and Avery is no longer a factor. Sidney seems to have taken that roll effectively getting into the heads of everyone in the building. Jagr was great last night but the stellar play of one man isn't going to be enough to come back from what's now a 3-0 deficit. Only two other teams in NHL history have done that. If the Rangers can manage that, they're going to the finals, no doubt in my mind. Unfortunately at the moment that is a very big IF.
I'll be sure to bring my camera on Thursday; I know how you all love to see your smiling faces on the tiny screen! See you then.
