Rangers’ Game 1 goose-egg vs. Panthers a Garden rarity
NY Post
Sergei Bobrovsky saw 23 shots on Wednesday night, and he stopped every last one of them.
The Panthers netminder accomplished a rarity in the Eastern Conference Final-opening 3-0 win at the Garden, serving the Rangers with their first blanking of the postseason — and only the second since the 2023-24 season began.
The last time the Blueshirts were held goalless was a 4-0 Dec. 9 loss to the rival Capitals.
Washington was also the last visiting team to serve up a shutout at MSG, another 4-0 result, on Dec. 27, 2022.
But one would have to go back even further to find the last time a team held the Rangers to a goose egg on home ice in the playoffs.
The last time they failed to score at the Garden in a playoff game was a 5-0 loss to the Penguins in Game 4 of an eventual first-round loss during the 2016 postseason.
If you can’t fix it, kill it, says Kevin Durant.
