October 7th, 2013, Game 2: NYR at LAK

To say we saw a different Rangers team tonight against the Kings than we did last Thursday is beyond an understatement. They forechecked hard, they hit hard, they skated hard... other than a few minutes at the start of the third and one glaring turnover, we saw a full 60 minutes tonight. Zucc was everywhere, Nash was everywhere, Pouliot was everywhere, Richards looked alive, Boyle was using his body, Dorsett made some great plays... we could go on. They earned all three of their goals for tonight by punishing their opponent all night every time a King touched the puck. However, to say they were attractive goals is simply untrue. If they play 80 more games like tonight's my job is going to be quite difficult. All that said, let's take a look at how it all went down...

This was not an easy game to watch. The Rangers did not look like they had their best game tonight, and there was a lot of disjointed play as it looked like they were not comfortable yet. A fair number of good things happened, which should give all Rangers fans hope for this season. There will need to be a lot of steps taken in a hurry, especially in the back end, if they expect to keep up with the high powered offenses in their division.
