Agreed that two things happened at the same time. The Bolts went flat and the Rangers stepped up their game. Which came first I cannot say. I know that if an average team plays a really bad team they suddenly look spectacular since there is less opposition to throw them off. My slap shots looked pretty good until an excellent goalie got in the net and suddenly I looked very average. One thing to note about last night's blowout is it seemed to me that Bishop wasn't at his very best last night. He played well but not supernatural as he has in previous games. It could have been an off night or, he may be running out of mental focus/adrenaline.

Also, since there was another lopsided game in the Bolts favor, IMO this series will come down to a bunch of hard fought one goal games and the loser is the one who stumbles first.
