Rangers 4, Devils 1

Found April 21, 2013 on NY Rangers Blog:
PLAYERS: Ryane Clowe,  Taylor Pyatt,  Brad Richards
TEAMS: New York Rangers,  Florida Panthers
The Rangers eliminated the NJ Devils from playoff contention with a 4-1 victory at the Garden today. For a box score click here. Wins don't feel much better than that. Especially against a bitter rival who eliminated you from the playoffs just a season ago and found themselves on life support. Sweet, sweet revenge... Na na na na, hey hey hey, goodbye..... Something had to have been said the Ranger locker room after the Flyers loss last Tuesday.... 18 goals in the last 3 games??? Someone flipped the Rangers playoff switch to 'on.'

Richards’ hot April is perfect timing

Via Blue Seat Blogs  |  April 20, 2013

He hasn’t been consistent, and he hasn’t been that top line center and powerplay quarterback that the Rangers thought they were getting. That said, Richards has been getting hot at the right time, and his hat trick last night could be just the beginning of a strong run for the veteran...

Stepan Right Up

Via Ranger Nation  |  April 21, 2013
