The New York Rangers will play the Los Angeles Kings in Game 5 of their NHL Stanley Cup 2014 series on Friday, with the Rangers looking to drag the series into a Game 6. However, to do so they will have to claim a win on the road at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California. The game will start at 8 p.m. ET and can be watched on TV on the NBC network or online through free live stream (details below).

The Rangers finally managed to win against the Kings at the fourth time of asking in Game 4, and by doing so they avoided being swept in the series.

However, the Rangers will not want to go quietly into the night, so expect them to come out with all guns blazing. They know they have to win, and with all weight of expectations now long gone when they fell to 0-3 in the series, they can play with a freedom that can throw caution to the wind, and could prove dangerous for the Kings.

This series could have been so different for the Rangers. They were in strong winning positions in both Games 1 and 2, but lost 2-0 leads in both. The Kings were amazing able to enter Game 3 being 2-0 up even without being ahead at any point in 6 periods of regulation time.

Game 3 was won comfortably by the Kings to put the Rangers on the brink, and in danger of losing the Stanley Cup 2014 Finals series in a clean sweep. However, they finally managed to claim the illusive win in Game 4 to bring them here at 1-3.

The Kings will be favorites to win tonight in front of their home fans to win the Stanley Cup, but the Rangers will be out to spoil the party tonight, and take things back to Madison Square Garden for Game 6, where they would have the chance to level the series on home ice, to take things to a winner takes all Game 7.
