This New York Rangers vs New Jersey Devils series has been a tale of two tapes. The Battle of the Hudson is a much-anticipated series and one to watch for. For the first time since 2012, these two teams get to square off in the playoffs. It\u2019s great for hockey and those fan based. A veteran team destined to win it all taking on a young team that defied all expectations. With the Devils having home ice to start, it did them no favours. In fact, the Rangers took over their barn in a convincing fashion. As it began to shift to Madison Square Garden, the momentum came to a halt. The Rangers currently lead the series 2-1. We’ve hit the midway point in the series, so let’s take a look at the Rangers vs Devils series trends. <\/span><\/p>\n

Rangers vs Devils Series Trends<\/span><\/h2>\n

If you are the New Jersey Devils, this is ideally not the start you’ve imagined. After showing they can keep up with the Rangers in the regular season, that has not been the case. New York stormed through Prudential Center, winning both games and have the home-ice advantage now. After Game 3, the Rangers now lead the series 2-1 thanks to Dougie Hamilton<\/a> being the hero. Through three games, this series has trends that have carried its way through the three games. <\/span><\/p>\n
