Rangers need to improve on woeful face-off stats

What do you remember most from the New York Rangers Game Seven overtime victory over the Washington Capitals in 2015? Is it the 3-1 series comeback? Or what about the feeling you had when Rangers forward Derek Stepan had the puck land on his stick off the pad of Caps goalie Braden Holtby?

For me it’s a quote by then NBC broadcaster Eddie Olczyk as he broke down the goal after it happened.

“We talk about how the Rangers are a team that runs more faceoff plays than anyone in the National Hockey League,” Olczyk explained.
