The Rangers laid an egg in Vegas, a poor showing against a team missing 7 regulars. The good news is that all season long, the Rangers have done pretty well at bouncing back from games they should have won. Tonight is no different, as the LA Kings are good, but not playing well at the moment.
The game is going to be played, but the story tonight will be Jonathan Quick’s return to Los Angeles, where he won 1 Cup in 2012 and nothing else happen. Nothing. Else. Happened.
This is a should win for the Rangers.
