Or did that come when Sidney Crosby left the ice for good with 6:50 remaining in the second period after having taken a hit up high from Jacob Trouba about four minutes earlier?

His status for next season would seem to have been in serious doubt. This is about now, of course, but if this is a glimpse of the future, the Kid Line will be a major part of it. You probably wouldn\u2019t have been able to say that two weeks ago.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI didn\u2019t score so many goals during the season, I was thinking too much on my chances,\u201d said Chytil, whose second unit got onto the ice with around 40 seconds remaining on the fateful power play. \u201cSo now I just close [my] eyes and shoot and score a goal finally.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m so happy I could help the team.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Goalie Igor Shesterkin stuck with it and played with resolve, the taunts of Pittsburgh miles away. The penalty kill snuffed a two-minute, five-on-three power play just 24 seconds into the match. Though the Rangers fell behind 2-0, even though their top two lines created next to nothing, with the Chris Kreider-Mika Zibanejad-Frank Vatrano unit falling to minus-four for the series (two for, six against), they refused to concede.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Penguins did not yield either. After the Rangers took a 3-2 lead on Trouba\u2019s goal at 17:53 of the second, their third strike in 2:32, the Penguins replied to tie it just 13 seconds later. So it was tied entering the third before Chytil struck.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It is up for grabs now. The Rangers\u2019 resurgence and Crosby\u2019s questionable status combining to ensure that.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s in a name? A lot if it belongs to No. 87.\n                        <\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
