NHL Network Credits Brad Richards With Giving "2 Shits" In Rangers' Win Over Devils

Never mind what John Tortorella did or didn't say during his postgame presser. It's impossible to win in the Stanley Cup playoffs without all the little things Brad Richards provided in tonight's Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals. There's just no underestimating what a veteran like Richards brings with that kind of effort; he showed what he had at both ends, and you can't win a championship without stuff like that. The Rangers are no doubt hoping Richards has a repeat performance in the tank for Game 2.
