The resiliency, the no-quit fire and the insatiable desire to be a winning club has been at the heart of the Rangers all season long.
And that is why this Rangers team was able to rally from a 3-1 series deficit, stave off elimination twice and then force overtime in Game 7 before Artemi Panarin punched their ticket to the second round of the Stanley Cup playoffs 4:46 into the extra period to secure a 4-3 win over the Penguins in front of a sold-out Madison Square Garden.
This Rangers team is the first in Stanley Cup playoff history to record three consecutive comeback wins in elimination games within the same series.
