Rangers Win - Pucks Junior is 1-0 lifetime at MSG

The Rangers hold on for a big 5-2 win over the Tampa Bay Lighting in front of a happy Madison Square Garden crowd that included Dave Pucks and Pucks Junior (at his first ever hockey game)

Lundqvist stopped 27 of 29 shots - which was enough for the win. When you give Hank 4 or 5 goals - he is very tough to beat'

The Rangers fell behind early 2-0 but scored. 4 unanswered goals in the 2nd and added an empty netter in the third to win 5-2.

This is the first game I've been at since the Rangers won their last playoff game - game 4 against the Capitals last spring. Not only is my consecutive win streak alive - all the scoring this afternoon took place at the goal we were near - with the exception of Drury's empty netter at the end.

So we're on our way home now - but a great win for the Rangers who now head to the Olympics having won 3 of 4 - two of those wins without our top goal scorer Marian Gaborik.

Gabby's injured thigh is now the problem of the Czech Olympic team - who play Wednesday. We'll do our best to keep you up to date on our Rangers in the Olympics - as they compete for their countries - and against each other - for the Gold Medal.
