It Comes Down To One Game
It comes down to one game. Today at 3pm, the Rangers take on the Flyers in Philadelphia to decide who will get in the playoffs and who will go home early. It doesn’t matter whether it’s in regulation, overtime, or in the shootout, the team that comes away with two points today will get a chance to continue their season against the Washington Capitals.
Neither team can claim an advantage in today’s game. The Rangers hold a 3-2 season series lead, and have won their last two match-ups between the two teams, but as Friday’s game showed, the margin of difference is slight.
