Chants of "Hen-reeek! Hen-reeek!" poured forth from the Rangers supporters in the stands, no longer ...

Yes, Lundqvist certainly had help, including goals from some unlikely teammates. Still, there is one key reason the Rangers are heading to th...

They'd already blown a two-game lead. They gave up a goal in the first minute of pivotal Game 5. They couldn't stay out of the penalty box. But they shut out the New York Rangers the rest of the night. They got a goal from Joel Ward to tie the game. They kept pepper...

The New York Rangers don't score. Puck over glass. "Casual Mike" does. The NHL's black-and-white delay-of-game rule found a gray area late in regulation, then tipped the balance of the game twice in overtime. The Washington Capitals held firm when they were a man down, then won it on Mike Green's latest extra-time winner...

Nearly all of their playoff games were decided by one goal. Alex Ovechkin's ice time dwindled. And their postseason ended with a Game 7 loss to the New York Rangers in the second round. On Thursday night, the Capitals opened this year's pl...

They also know it's vital to convert chances against their first-round playoff opponent, the New York Rangers, who were whistled for the fewest penalties in the league. So after starting 0 for 3 in extra-man situations in Game 1 ...

Their teammates are pretty good, too. In the NHL playoffs, that guarantees nothing. Superstars and teams that were successful in the regular season get sent home, regularly, in the wild and wide-open postseason because seedings are relatively irrelevant. Los Angeles proved th...

Their start was so terrible that even an optimistic die-hard would figure that, with the right breaks, perhaps they could steal a berth in the final game of the regular season. Yet here they are, postseason-bound with two games to spare, q...

With so many games packed into the winter, unpredictable developments were, well, predictable. Here's a rundown of some of the biggest surprises so far: THE HAWKS ARE HOT ...
