Devils vs Rangers preview
The Stanley Cup playoffs are finally upon us and the hockey Gods have graced us with an amazing opening round series to kick things off in the East. With exorbitant ticket prices in tow, the New Jersey Devils and the New York Rangers will face off in the playoffs for the first time in 11 years. With the Devils returning for the first time since 2018, they’ll have no easy path against a Rangers team that cruised all the way to the Eastern Conference finals last year.
Twice has the playoff series between these two gone the full stretch to seven games, with 1994’s double OT Rangers win still plaguing Devils fans today. New York is 4-2 overall against New Jersey in the Playoffs, with the Devil’s having the last laugh in 2012 but falling short of the Stanley Cup.
The festivities in which 21-year-old Jack Hughes – the No.1 overall pick in 2019 – will be a speedy, fighting force against Igor Shesterkin and the Blueshirts. While NJ has home ice to start, it's only their second trip since falling short in 2012. The Rangers, on the other hand, bring along the most recent postseason experience with a slightly older and more experienced squad.
Whichever way it goes, this rivalry is one that has stood the test of time. Of the four times these two met during the regular season, the Devils have come out on top for three, with the Rangers sneaking out one in overtime.
The best-of-seven series kicks off Tuesday night at 7pm ET. Here's how to watch a Devils vs Rangers live stream no matter where you are in the world. Pro tip: you might want to try a VPN if you're looking to tune into NHL while abroad.
