The Rangers are looking to continue their winning streak in Vancouver, hoping to make it four in a row on this west coast swing. The Blueshirts have had strong performances against Seattle and Edmonton, sandwiching a win in Calgary where they just found a way. This is the first time in a while that the Rangers are seeing good process matched with good results, especially to start the season.
Vancouer is no pushover, but they are not a good team. The Rangers are much more balanced and the bottom half of their lineup is far better. The question will be about execution, as per usual, and perhaps going one game without a disallowed goal. Maybe it’s just me, but these disallowed goals are getting sofa king annoying (read that fast, you’ll get the gist).
