After losing the first two games in embarrassing fashion, the Rangers are 3-1 in their last 4.The 1 came on the second leg of a back-to-back.
They are starting to come together. Losing Callahan is rough. But they can rally behind that and use the adversity to get stronger as a team.
Penguins are 1-3 in their last 4. The 1 came in a shootout. The loses were really bad. Including a 4-1 loss to the Islanders and a 5-2 loss to the Leafs.
The Rangers can win this game.

Why are people acting like the Penguins are some unbeatable team and that this is an uphill battle? We have the same record and they lost to Toronto, Winnipeg and the Islanders...
Have you been watching them at all this season or are you just assuming that since they're the islanders they should be penciled in as the worst team of the league... They look legit this year, with a shortened season there is a lot less time for them to tank at the end. Wouldn't be surprised if they snuck into the playoffs if Nabokov keeps this up and isn't traded.

Being a realist. This team has looked really bad against the Penguins post-lockout. Crosby/Malkin both have better stats against the Rangers than other teams. They simply match up too well against us, similarly to how we match up well to the Flyers.
This team is 23-20-5 against the Pens in the reg season since the lockout (doesn't include current season). I certainly wouldn't call that 'really bad', especially as the Pens have been one of the best in the East for most of those years
in 09/10 we went 1-4-1 against them (and then reversed it the next season). Last year we were 2-4.

Anything the islanders can do, we can do better
I really hope they don't make the playoffs
They have a good goalie in Nabokov.

They have a good goalie in Nabokov.
But they don't have the best goalie

If you want to be so miserable about it before the game's even played, why bother watching at all?
Better yet.. you should pledge to eat your pubes if we win

It's going to be tough, very tough tonight. Remember, the Pens got embarrassed by the Isles on Tuesday.

The pressure falls almost entirely on our top line's magic or... alternative, on a stellar night from Henrik.

He's not.
This game could go either way, really. Hoping for the best. They can't come out chasing early. If they do, we're in for a bad night like last time.
