Adam Fox thinks that the New York Rangers will have to earn the win. Fox states that he doesn't believe that the Hurricanes are going to just give up the game. If anything, Fox thinks that the Hurricanes will fight even harder to stay in the playoffs. This means the New York Rangers will have to step up their game and come even harder and more prepared.
Fox states that the New York Rangers have shown just how resilient they are all season, including the playoffs and that he is confident about how they will respond in Game 5. It will be interesting to see what Peter Laviolette decides to do with player Filip Chytil as reports state that he is feeling better. Should Laviolette let Chytil change the dynamic of the team thus far or will he keep the team as is? We will have to wait and see and no matter what Laviolette decides, I don't think it will be an easy choice to make. It could very well change the outcome both ways.
The New York Rangers have what it takes to go the distance, there is no doubt about it. While the intensity may be turned up in Carolina, the Rangers would have had to level up sooner or later and I think this is the perfect time to show everyone they are one step closer to obtaining the Stanley Cup. Let's go Rangers!
