Rangers Beat Penguins and take 2-1 Lead in Series

The New York Rangers have recaptured home ice advantage with a 2-1 victory in Pittsburgh last night.

The 'blue shirts' iron man, Henrik Lundqvist was almost unstoppable, with 23 out of 24 blocks in front of the Rangers net, while Chris Kreider and Carl Hagelin scored the points.

Rangers had a 2-0 lead going into the third period when the Penguins scored a goal to make the final minutes exciting. But the Rangers defense stepped up, and showed why they are the best team in the league.

These two teams will meet up again Thursday night in Pittsburgh. If the Rangers can secure a win, they'll go back to the Garden with a 3-1 lead, one win away from closing out the series! I'm feeling good about this one.

Go Rangers!
