Finally!
FINALLY!!!!
That exclamation could of course be applied to several aspects of last night’s 4-1 win over the visiting Washington Capitals.
Finally the Rangers ended their seven-game losing streak.
Finally the Rangers stood up for each other, with four fights including one between Brendan Shanahan and Donald Brashear.
Finally the Rangers took care of the Capitals (in regulation time no less), after years of indecisive play against them and taking them too lightly. Okay, so they did beat them on opening night, but this has been a team that has given the Rangers trouble over the past few seasons despite the mismatch on paper.
Finally the Rangers beat a team they should’ve beaten while they were down.
Finally Petr Prucha scored a goal…two in fact.
Finally it was the other team that had the flu, and not the Rangers.
