The club from New York has left no chances to defending Stanley Cup champions at its site.
In the National Hockey League, teams began to figure out who was the strongest in the Eastern Conference. This year, Rangers and defending league champion Tampa Bay advanced to the finals. The first match, held in New York, was confidently won by the hosts.
It should be noted that the equal fight in the duel lasted only in the first half, followed by which the numbers 2: 2 were burning on the scoreboard. After the Rangers came together and brought the matter to the beating of “lightning” 6: 2.
