NEW YORK — First, the Rangers swept a New Year’s weekend home-and-home series against the two-time defending Stanley Cup champion Tampa Bay Lightning.
Then they beat two of the best players in the world, Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl.
So things already are coming in twos in 2022 for the Blueshirts, whose latest achievement came on Monday night at Madison Square Garden, where they beat McDavid, Draisaitl and the Oilers, 4-1.
