As was the case against the Penguins, the Rangers once again find themselves in a series hole as their superstar players such as Artemi Panarin, Chris Kreider and Mika Zibanejad fail to get anything going in a 2-0 Game 2 loss to the Carolina Hurricanes. Everything that made the Canes a scary opponent for the Rangers showed up in this game, including faceoffs being one-sided and the Canes’ penalty kill excelling. Breaking down the complete disaster that was the four-minute Ranger powerplay in the second period. Should the Rangers juggle the line combinations and/or move one or both of Alexis Lafreniere and Kaapo Kakko into the top six? There are some positives to take out of this game, including another strong night from Igor Shesterkin, the Rangers getting the job done on the penalty kill, and more.

Despite being the better team for at least two periods, the Rangers allow the Carolina Hurricanes to find the equalizer late in the third and lose Game 1 just three minutes into overtime. Why it’s not panic time, though it is certainly a missed opportunity. The kid line of Kaapo Kakko, Alexis Lafreniere and Filip Chytil is the Rangers best line, though Kakko critically misses an open net late in the third period. Even so, Kakko may have been the best Ranger on the ice. Calling it now: Tyler Motte is going to make a big play at some point in this Ranger run. Rangers play better team defense than they did in any game against Pittsburgh. Igor Shesterkin plays one of his best games of the playoffs. Alexis Lafreniere bates Tony DeAngelo, steals the puck and sets up Filip Chytil for a goal. Episode 599. Intro song is “Leave the Lights On” by Passafire.
