christian ammann/iStock/Thinkstock(NEW YORK) — The Tampa Bay Lightning stunned the crowd at Madison Square Garden on Sunday, beating the New York Rangers in a final score of 2-0.
Rangers fans originally entered the Garden confident the team would be one game away from the Stanley Cup, but they left anxious and angry as the team was blanked by the lightning.
Alain Vigneaut tried to find a silver lining after his team’s Jekyl and Hyde-style offense went silent.
“I’ve got a lot of faith and trust in my players. They know how to prepare and they know how to get ready for games. For us this year, there’s going to be no bigger game than the next one, and I’m confident that we’re going to be ready for it,” he said late Sunday.
The Lightning now takes a 3-2 series lead over the Rangers.
