NY Rangers Make Bobble Heads out of Boston Bruins on March 23rd

Wed night's Ranger  game at MSG was a big win over the Boston Bruins who went home with their heads held down.  The 5-2 victory was a slick victory.  In the 1st period, Rangers scored on 2 consecutive power plays in short order but not without a major fight breaking out on the ice.  Boston's Belesky felt slammed (check that) and went after Glass with a sucker punch that was returned.  Glass didn't deserve the penalty for fighting, Belesky started it.  Glass shot at Belesky landed a stunning shiner that showed up before Belesky bolted from the box.  There were 2 interesting calls that worked in the Rangers favor.  Coming into the 21st C with sports challenges, Rangers' coach called for a review on a Bruins goal. He questioned an offsides infraction prior to the goal.  After review, the goal was gone and the crowd went wild: HEY HEY HEY Hey now!  Good call by both the coach & the referees.  Another Bruins goal went under review by the refs and while the jumbo screen seemed to justify the goal, the refs ruled otherwise and Ranger fans will take the goal and be all the wiser.  With little hope or luster left, the Bruins pulled their goalie with 3 minutes left in the 3rd & the Rangers put another goal on the scoreboard.  Despite the Bruins having more than 30 shots on goal only 2 goals made it by Henrik Lundquist.  Center Derek Stepan stepped up his game and everyone could use a wingman like Zuccarello.   Happy Ranger fans all went home with a "Zuc" bobblehead.
