So much for great playing - Rangers @ Hurricanes Second Period Analysis

Well there isn't much really to say here. The speed of the game was the same but unfortunately that benefited the Hurricanes twice. They got two 2 on 1 rushes and took advantage of both. I thought Henrik could've had the first one but both were well placed shots. They showed some energy at the end of the period and had some chances but no luck. They need to come back out with the energy they ended the period with. This is a team that we should beat. Yea, they are in the playoffs but that is because their division is horrendous. This is not a playoff team we are playing and we need this win.
