Lightning know finishing off Rangers won't be an easy task

Tampa Bay Lightning

TAMPA — The Lightning stand at the cusp of playing for the Cup.

One more win and they are in.

But earning one more victory presents a challenge Tampa Bay has yet to encounter this playoff season.

The Lightning hold a 3-2 advantage in the best-of-seven Eastern Conference finals against the New York Rangers heading into Game 6 tonight at Amalie Arena. A victory would capture the Prince of Wales trophy and the second Eastern Conference crown in franchise history for Tampa Bay and advance the Lightning to the Stanley Cup finals to face the winner of the Western Conference finals between Anaheim and Chicago.
