The Rangers will look to eliminate the Capitals and sweep a playoff series for the first time in 17 years as Game 4 beckons Sunday evening.
While the two teams split four regular-season matchups, New York has proved the dominant foe through the opening three playoff games, resembling the team that captured the President's Trophy this season.
Centers Vincent Trocheck and Mika Zibanejad lead the Rangers with five points apiece through the first three games. Meanwhile, netminder Igor Shesterkin has compiled 70 saves while allowing just five goals; his stoic performance helped shut down Washington in Game 3.
