The Rangers go for the sweep tonight and we think they get it. The 7-0 victory yesterday was a message and a back-breaker for the Thrashers. The message is that Atlanta isn't ready for playoff hockey. Can they muster enough to at least win one here? Not likely. This is a team that is 20-25 since mid-season and 9-21 after giving up 4+ goals in a game. Underdogs revenging a shut out in games between two winning teams are just 21-62 (25%) over the past five seasons. New York ends it here.
