The New York Rangers put pressure on Tampa Bay after the two initial victories in the conference finals.
But you do not shake off the champion team anyway.
Tampa won its two home games and most recently the team took a big step towards the Stanley Cup final when they defeated the Rangers in Madison Square Garden.
Now this series can be decided already tonight Swedish time if the Rangers do not win and force a seventh and decisive match
– Tampa is a good team but we have said that about all the teams we met in the playoffs now and it is clear that you do not want to put yourself in a situation like this but when we have done so we have responded well. We know what we can do and we can go out and do it again, says Mika Zibanejad.
Against Pittsburgh, the team turned a 1-3 deficit into a 4-3 victory and against Carolina, they turned a 2-3 disadvantage into a 4-3 victory.
According to the Swedish superstar, the team has a good feeling now with the experiences they scraped on during this playoffs.
– It will be a new test for us now. We need to take care of ourselves and what we can control. It’s the same chains in the next match and that’s how we have done it all the way, Zibanejad.
