After the emotional Game 4 victory at the Igloo, Kevin Hayes and the New York Rangers will look to finish off the Penguins at MSG on Friday.

As all New York Rangers watched Game 4 Wednesday night, hair was being pulled out for most of the first period. We wondered, could these Rangers ever put a team away in a series?

New York hasn’t finished off a series in less than six games since they disposed of the New Jersey Devils back in 2008.

Every winning series has been in six games (once), or a gut-wrenching seven game affair (five times). They seemingly love to make our lives miserable.

However, after that dreadful first period – for which head coach Alain Vigneault laid into his team for a lackluster effort – the Rangers came out buzzing and owned the play the rest of the way.

When rookie Kevin Hayes buried the game-winner, Game 5 at Madison Square Garden suddenly became the burial game for the Pittsburgh Penguins.
