The Rangers are in Philly tonight to hopefully end this series in six games and win a date with the Pittsburgh Penguins in the next round. Philly won’t go down without a fight, and they have shown more desperation when trailing in this series. New York is going to need to buck this trend of losing games when up in the series, and tonight is a perfect opportunity to do just that.
For a complete preview of this series, including the systems Craig Berube has the Flyers playing, check out this post by Suit. Don’t forget that Justin wrote a post on Steve Mason’s goaltending style.
