3 Burning Questions As the New York Rangers Even the Eastern Conference Finals

2- Who's in the Lineup for Game Three?

The Rangers inserted Matt Rempe back into the lineup for Game Two of this series demoting Kaapo Kakko. After tonight's victory, Peter Laviolette likely would have preferred to keep the same lineup for Game 3 in Florida however, he may not have that liberty.

Jimmy Vesey missed the third period and overtime after suffering what Peter Laviolette described as an upper-body injury. If Vesey is unable to go in Game 3, Peter Laviolette will have to insert either Johnny Brodzinski, Kaapo Kakko, or Blake Wheeler back into the lineup.

There are also decisions to be made with a few other players as the team heads South for Game 3. Jack Roslovic hasn't played well for most of this postseason and was moved down to the third line where he was a worse fit than Kakko. While Matt Rempe gave MSG an energy boost Laviolette may not get the same energy boost down in Florida.

Peter Laviolette is going to have some seriously difficult decisions to make heading to Florida. Laviolette seemingly has two or three spots in the lineup for six players all of whom bring different styles of play to the lineup. If Vesey can't play you'll likely see Rempe and Kakko in the lineup or Jonny Brodzinski filling the role of either player. If Vesey can go, the final spot will seemingly come down to Kakko, Rempe, or Brodzinski.
