Today the New York Rangers visit the Pittsburgh Penguins in Game 5 of their Eastern Conference Semi-Final match-up. For a full preview go to Yahoo! Sports....ok, the Rangers accomplished their first goal of getting the series back to Pittsburgh. Goal #2, a Game 6 at the Garden. The obvious formula for victory will be the Rangers playing a defensive, physical style of play. We need to punish their stars. If we hit Hossa early, he runs and hides. If we hit Crosby and Malkin they've shown they can be rattled and will be thrown off their game.
...Lundqvist needs to come up big early as the Pens will come out flying.
...here's even more motivation for the Rangers. A series win against the Penguins gives them home ice advantage in the Conference Finals against the Flyers, who knocked off the #1 seeded Canadiens last night.
