Going to Madison Square Garden for Game 3 Eastern Conference Quarterfinals as Rangers Host Capitals at 3:00 PM

My Wife and I are going to Madison Square Garden shortly to root on the Rangers vs. the Capitals and hated sniper Alex Ovechkin. This will be my Wife’s first Ranger Playoff game at The Garden. The Blueshirts are down 2 games to none and today is obviously a must-win game. The Rangers played much better overall in Game 2 Friday night compared to Game 1 on Wednesday as they got their forecheck and offensive pressure going. One of Washington’s goals in Fridays loss was on a Capitals’ power play where a very lucky bounce landed on Jason Arnott’s stick. The roughing penalty called on defenseman Ryan McDonagh was a complete joke as both teams were taking liberties after the whistle earlier in the game. The Capital player also fell down like a bag of flour by the way. More importantly today the Rangers must remain disciplined, stay out of the penalty box, forecheck, continue to have excellent defense and goaltender Henrik Lundqvist must stand on his head. If they can do that they will win! LET’S GO RANGERS!
