NY Rangers to the NHL Finals

The New York Rangers advanced to the Stanley Cup finals for the first time in 20 years with a (1-0) victory vs the Montreal Canadiens in game six of the Eastern Conference finals.

This will be just the 4th finals appearance for the Rangers in 63 seasons played 1951-2014. There was no NHL  season in 2005.

New York awaits the winner of the Chicago Blackhawks/Los Angeles Kings series, which L.A. leads three games to two.

One mega corporation’s ceiling is a country’s low. While NBC gets a final between its country’s largest city and one of the next two, Canada gets a 20th consecutive NHL season without one of its teams winning the Stanley Cup.
