The New York Rangers were able to overcome a 3-1 series deficit and a guarantee from Alex Ovechkin - that was backed by his first period goal - to upend the Washington  Capitals 2-1 in overtime of Game 7 on the Eastern Conference Semis on Wednesday night...

After finding themselves in a 3-1 hole, the New York Rangers have bounced back with consecutive victories and will host the Washington Capitals in a deciding Game 7 tonight at Madison Square Garden.

The New York Rangers pulled out another win with their backs to the wall, this time on the road in Washington holding off the Capitals 4-3 on Sunday night to setup a series deciding Game 7 on Wednesday night in the Big Apple.

If getting a shot past Braden Holtby wasn't difficult enough, the New York Rangers are having trouble getting pucks through the Washington Capitals' defense.

The New York Rangers will look to even their best-of-seven series with the Washington Capitals on Wednesday night (7:30) in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Semi-Finals.

Braden Holtby and Henrik Lundqvist each put on spectacular performances in Game Three of their Eastern Conference Semi-Finals but it was a puck that came from behind that decided outcome.

Joel Ward flipped home the game winning goal with under two seconds remaining as the Washington Capitals swiped Game 1 from the New York Rangers at Madison Square Garden Thursday in the opener of their Eastern Conference Semi-Finals matchup.

Henrik Lundqvist's back to back to shutouts in Games 6 and 7 have the Rangers advancing to the Eastern Conference Semifinals to take on the Boston Bruins.

With a trip to the conference finals at stake, the Rangers were able to knock out the team that had eliminated them in their last two playoff appearances.

If the Rangers are going to advance to the next round, they're going to have to win another Game 7.
