The team's surprising season fell short of the ultimate goal.
-- Steven Stamkos scored two goals and the two-time defending champion Tampa Bay Lightning are headed to the Stanley Cup Final for the third straight year after beating the Stamkos put the Lightning ahead for good in the third period just 21 seconds after New York's Frank Vatrano scored on the power play with the Lightning captain in the penalty box for holding.
The Rangers, down 3-2 in a series for the third straight round, were 5-0 in elimination games this postseason before Saturday night. It was a totally different story Saturday night, with the Lightning limiting New York's scoring opportunities while outshooting the Rangers 31-21. Fans were staying positive, wearing their lucky jerseys and hats. All the superstitions were on display.
Rangers fans say they have their not-so-secret weapon, Igor Shesterkin, one of the best goaltenders in the league, who plays some of his best hockey under pressure.
