New York. It looked as if the New York Rangers had already gone on summer vacation, but by the end of the second period, lightning suddenly struck Madison Square Garden.
The Blueshirts turned 2-0 down with three quick goals, eventually won 5-3 and kept the season alive for at least a few more days.
We fought for the win and the same work effort will be needed again in the next match, Mika Zibanijad tells Sportbladet.
The scene changed during the last minutes of the second half in the fifth round between New York Rangers And Pittsburgh penguins It couldn’t be more exciting.
Until then, the Penguins had completely dominated the game, leading 2-0 and looking forward to the second round of the Stanley Cup.
But suddenly, the home team exploded and scored three quick goals. The Penguins then equalized before the break, but in the third inning Philip Chettle took a new lead and in the end, Ryan Lindgren – after fierce Pittsburgh pressure – managed to score 5-3 into the empty net.
– Very nice, of course, he says Mika Zibanjad When we get to it then.
– We really fought for victory.
And so the game streak was cut short, but Rangers would win even in Pittsburgh the night before Saturday — or else the season would end prematurely anyway.
– He’ll demand the same effort then, says Mika.
We have to make sure we play our game again.
