Game 1 was a case of the score not telling the whole story of the whole game. The reality of it is that the whole game hinged on one play, which resulted in a completely unnecessary own goal. If that doesn't happen, instead of being down 2-1 and having to pull the goalie with less than a minute to go, the game is probably tied at the end of regulation and going into overtime. Get the picture? It is a much different game if Boris Valabik doesn't put the puck into his own net. Instead, the Thrashers start the series 0-1, and if they end up losing it in 7, that play will likely be the big difference in deciding who goes on to the conference finals. Now, Game 2 is upon us, and the Thrashers hope to shake off the bad memories of that play, steal one from New York, tie the series, and head home for Game 3 having stolen home-ice advantage. But the Rangers have other things in mind. They hope to win this one, keep home-ice, and increase their series lead to 2-0, all of this despite Chris Drury being out because of injury. How will it all go down?
