The Lightning are the Lightning as we have come to find out. After dropping the first two games on the road some in the hockey world were sticking a fork in them, saying their unprecedented run was coming to an inevitable end.
They have now won two straight after epic full team performances at home and our once again favourites to win the series and also slightly favoured in the game tonight despite being on the road in MSG where the Rangers are exceptional.
So without further ado, let’s dive into this matchup where we see the series comeback to the big apple for what is now a best of three.
Tampa Bay Lightning
Vasilevskiy is starting to finally look human but is still posting a very competent .917 sv% and in the previous matchup only allowed one goal.
The Lightning score only a slight clip above the Rangers at 3.48 goals per game and their own Vezina candidate netminder has a lot to do with that currently.
New York Rangers
The Rangers are on an unprecedented run of their own. Having some of the worst 5 on 5 per 60 stats of all the teams who made the Stanley Cup Playoff tournament, many did not have them making it this far myself included.
They have every right to be here though, they have some big time talent and some added depth that are all stepping up at opportune times to make huge plays. We all know about Mika Zibanejad and Adam Fox but the now notorious Kid Line is also making hay.
Igor Shesterkin is the heartbeat of this squad though. This dude is on another level, yes he let in 4 last game but that was a consequence of poor defensive play and an onslaught attack from the Bolts.
He comes up with saves that are downright inhumane that nobody else can make that includes the otherworldly goalie at the other end.
