The Rangers’ power play has found its rhythm, and Chris Kreider has been the final note.
Rangers’ 5-1 win over the DevilsHis four power-play goals through the first two contests of this playoffs series have made him the first player in NHL history with that many in that span.
“As a defenseman, it’s fun playing defense, it’s hard to defend a guy who can tip pucks like that in front of the net. You got Mika [Zibanejad] and Kaner [Patrick Kane] and all these other guys to worry about, as well. He’s taking advantage of his opportunities and that’s good for our group.” “He’s got a great stick, he’s done that for a long time,” Gallant said. “We’re finding ways to get goals and that’s huge for us.”The Devils made some alterations to the lineup ahead of Game 2.
