4. Playoff Revenge

Following the lockout, the Rangers and the Devils met in the playoffs for the 2005-06 season. It was a highly anticipated matchup, as it marked the Rangers’ first playoff appearance since the 1996-97 season. For the Rangers fans, it was a playoff series they would like to forget, as the Blueshirts lost in four games.

In the 2007-08 opening round the Rangers met up with the Devils again with revenge on their minds. The series provided us with a little bit of everything. The continuous battle between Sean Avery and Brodeur, leading up to “The Avery” rule, as well as Brodeur not shaking Avery’s hand in the post-series handshake line.

The most important part of the series; the Rangers came out on top (4-1), with the lone loss in overtime. Although they won the series in Devils territory, Rangers fans in attendance made their voices heard as only they can.
