In Steve Zipay's Ranger Insider he gives an in-depth report on how the Rangers matchup against either the Carolina Hurricanes, Ottawa Senators or New Jersey Devils...Here's a brief overview:
Rangers-Hurricanes:
The key for me: If the Rangers' power play can click, they should win in six.
Rangers-Senators:
Can the Sens score enough to make up for the situation between the pipes? Perhaps not. Will the Rangers score enough to offset the Senators? Here's where the added punch of X-factors Brandon Dubinsky, Marc Staal and Nigel Dawes could be a factor.
The main story line would be veteran goaltender Martin Brodeur against rising star Lundqvist, who has been on the winning side in the first six games this season, a Rangers' record against their cross-river rivals.
...a few weeks ago I was begging to play the Hurricanes in the first round, but they have been just as hot as the Rangers lately (8-2-0 in their last 10) so I'm not too sure I want to play them right now.
...truthfully, we have enough talent on this team to beat anyone in the East, so I don't care who we play as long as we get in.
