Rangers vs. Devils: A Frustrating Yet Unsurprising Result¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I think it is fair to say that this was a game many expected the team to lose given how bad things had gone for the Devils this season, and in many ways the game played out as expected.
It was a weird game for the Rangers, and one heavily impacted by special teams, and it makes me wonder how different things could have been had the game been primarily played 5v5, because the team did post some good results, although New Jersey was without top center Nico Hischier.
