The Tampa Bay Lightning showed they aren't willing to hand over their crown without a fight.

Kreider’s 10th goal of these playoffs boosted his career total to 34, tying Hall of Famer Rod Gilbert for the franchise record. Zibanejad’s 10th goal of the postseason was his NHL-leading sixth on the power play, tying Adam Graves (1996) for the franchise record in a single postseason. “At that point you either fold up and just hope out there or you go out and do it,” Stamkos said. Stamkos’ goal was his sixth of the playoffs. New York’s Mika Zibanejad recorded a power-play goal and an assist and Chris Kreider also tallied with the man advantage. Tampa Bay capped a spirited rally from a two-goal deficit after Nikita Kucherov’s nifty backhanded feed found Palat deep in the right circle.

This is a deep, healthy system with a calvary of young pitching on the way.

There is enough depth among the Rangers’ upper-level relief arms to withstand the natural rate of injury and failure for their bullpen prospects, making the development of the starters in that “Lower-Impact Arms” group of honorable mention prospects particularly important to the club’s stability over the next handful of years. The Rangers are starting to have good problems, like “what do we do with all these prospects?” They have one of the bigger upcoming 40-man crunch situations, with a dozen candidates for a December 2022 40-man add (Jung, Winn, White, Acuna, Harris, Ornelas, Slaten, Weems, Englert, Bradford, Kent, Wendzel) and not enough places to put all of those guys. Kindreich is a loose lefty with a good changeup who was taken in the eighth round of the 2021 draft. While the Rangers can hopefully coax more out of Jon Gray, it is him, Dane Dunning, and Glenn Otto who project to be the long-term components of a viable rotation, while others like Taylor Hearn (who still has two option years left) ideally downshift into either relief or spot start roles. Osuna has sneaky pop for his size but it’s still shy of what is typical for a big league left fielder, and it projects to stay that way. Walker has long been a FanGraphs favorite because of his bat-to-ball acumen, his powerful physique (part of what we thought would lead to more power), and his swing’s lift (which we thought would help him get to that power), but a poor approach has undercut the whole operation. MacLean, 19, still only sat about 86-87 mph in 2021 and has been shifted into a relief-only role this year, but his frame and mechanical grace are indications that he might eventually throw harder and switch on his fastball’s traits. Ahlstrom is a four-pitch lefty out of Oregon from the 2021 draft. Mateo, 20, is built like a slot receiver and has plus bat speed, but his offensive output is undermined by his lack of plate discipline. He’s not a true shortstop and lacks typical physical projection, but both he and Osuna, a 19-year-old left field-only athlete currently raking at Low-A, have a chance to get there on the strength of their hit tools. Below is an analysis of the prospects in the farm system of the Texas Rangers. Scouting reports were compiled with information provided by industry sources as well as my own observations. Del Orbe is very raw for a 20-year-old, but some of that might just be because he’s a 6-foot-3 switch-hitter who’s still growing into his body.

Under 5.5 goals (-129): Both goalies showed up in Game 3 for the first time in this series. The pregame narrative: Tampa Bay’s championship experience was on display on Sunday. The Bolts battled back after falling behind 0-2, and Ondrej Palat scored the game-winning goal with under a minute remaining. Rangers to win Period 2 (+225): New York’s 25 second-period goals during the postseason are second only to the Edmonton Oilers (27).

It’s hard to imagine the Lightning exerting that level of domination in consecutive games, and that’s why we’re rolling with the Rangers in Game 4. The Tampa Bay Lightning struck in Game 3 with a comeback 3-2 victory over the New York Rangers and have added some intrigue to the Eastern Conference final.
