The Rangers came into tonight at 1-2-1 and many calling it a must win in October. I don’t buy that part of it, but the Rangers came out with that kind of intensity and when they faltered, Martin Biron bailed them out. The point of bringing in Biron was to have a backup for Henrik Lundqvist who you could trust to start any game and let Henrik rest more. If this is any indication of Biron is going to play this year, then the Rangers can take it a lot easier on Hank as the year moves along.
