Rangers 5 for 5 in Olympic Stars

It continues to be an amazing Olympics for your New York Rangers

Chris Drury and Ryan Callahan have been a huge part of Team USA's success. Last night's stunning 5-3 win over the superstar filled Team Canada with Marty Brodeur got a lot of help from Drury – who scored the go-ahead goal to put the American up 3-2. Callahan blocked a big shot in the third period and both Rangers saw a lot of ice time and were a defensive force on the ice. Drury now has 2 goals in the Olympics and Callahan has an assist. Drury is +3 and Callahan is +2. Team USA is 3-0 and have earned a slot in the quarterfinals.

Marian Gaborik's Slovakia Team is 2-1. Gabby has a goal on 16 shots and is +1. He has been an emotional leader of this team.

Olli Jokinen's Finland is also 2-1 losing only to Lundqvist and Sweden early Monday Morning. The Ranger Center has a goal and an assist.

And Henrik Lundqvist has two shut outs in two starts for Sweden. His team, the defending Gold Medal winner, is 3-0 this Olympics.

So all of our players are doing us proud over in Vancouver. Let's hope they can keep it up. The single-elimination Medal round is next.
