After Game 4 against the Penguins, the finality of the 2013-14 Rangers season started to set in and by the time Game 5 started, I had come to terms with the idea that there might be only one game left. Then after the Rangers’ dominant performance in Pittsburgh in Game 5, I thought the Rangers could do the impossible. I didn’t expect them to pull it off, but here we are on the eve of the Eastern Conference finals with the Rangers playing the Canadiens for a chance to play for the Cup.
Kevin DeLury of The New York Rangers Blog joined me to talk about the Rangers’ improbable comeback against the Penguins, how the Henrik Lundqvist critics have now been quieted forever and why the Rangers have a more favorable matchup against the Canadiens in the conference finals.
