Comes Down to One Game Tonight for Rangers
Fact Checked by Pat McLoone

Game Seven!

The two greatest and most heart-wrenching words in sports will be on display again tonight when two rivals try to advance in the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

About every eye in New York sports betting will be watching the third Game 7 matchup in a little more than 24 hours when the New York Rangers visit the New Jersey Devils (ESPN, 8 p.m.).

After back-to-back lackluster efforts, the Rangers resuscitated themselves with a 5-2 victory Saturday night at Madison Square Garden to stave off elimination.

New York is looking to become the third consecutive road team to win a Game 7 after the Florida Panthers upset the Boston Bruins in overtime, 4-3, in and the Seattle Kraken edged the defending Stanley Cup Champion Colorado Avalanche, 2-1, on Sunday night.

Tonight’s winner will advance to the Eastern Conference semifinals to face the Carolina Hurricanes.
