The NHL playoffs continue.
Last night, two matches were held…
We had a good offer:
tea @NYRangers The team takes a 3-0 lead in the series with its seventh straight win to start 2024 #StanleyCup Playoffs while @DallasStars Their chain is tied in one piece.#NHLStats: https://t.co/ntyKIo3YNK pic.twitter.com/anbElOLdct

The Rangers look unstoppable
Who will be able to stop the New York Rangers?
The question must be on Rod Brind'Amour's mind at the moment… because his club seems helpless in the face of… Blue shirts.
The Hurricanes opened the scoring in the game, but Chris Kreider pulled everyone back into par with the game-winning goal during the second period.

A rivalry has begun between the two teams and this leads to a fast, intense and exciting hockey game.
However… Rangers' big guns made the difference once again, as Alexis Lafreniere scored his side's second goal to make it 2-1:

At the end of the game, the Hurricanes pulled their goalie to try everything while the Rangers led 2-1…
The strategy worked.
Andrei Svechnikov scored with just over a minute left in the game to force overtime:

Extra time wasn't long and Rangers fans were able to go to sleep with a smile on their faces.
Why?
Because it was Artemi Panarin who played the hero in overtime (3-2), and then went with his favorite celebration:

Thus, the Rangers take a 3-0 lead in the series…
They will sweep the Hurricanes tomorrow, with the game scheduled for 7 p.m. (at Carolina).
Also note that the Rangers have yet to lose since the start of the season Playoffs (7-0).
Will they reach the end?
Al-Hilal must learn from its mistakes.
The Avalanche won't always be able to come from behind to create counting In the series.
It doesn't work like this.
However… the team is unable to learn from its mistakes, even though it (again) started the match by scoring several goals for the opponent.
I say that because after two periods of play…it was already 4-0 to the Stars:

The Avalanche have all the talent in the world to be a dominant team…but we also know the team is flawed defensively.
However, the club can rely on its attack, and this is what happened in the third period.
The Avalanche scored three unanswered goals to get within one goal of the Stars…and scored Colorado's third goal with less than four minutes left in the third.
The excitement was at its peak:

But the Avalanche's comeback stopped there, as Esa Lendl took advantage of an empty net to score his first goal of the playoffs.
The Stars won 5-3.
The series is now tied 1-1 and travels to Colorado for the next two games.
Hopefully, by then, the Avalanche players will have understood that they have to play from him Low puckOtherwise… their journey will end very quickly.
