  • Pacioretty cherishing opportunity in playoffs with Capitals after enduring seasons of injuries 

    "There's a lot of pride that I've only missed the playoffs a few times and I like to consider those anomalies," Pacioretty said. Playing against the Rangers brings Pacioretty back to his hockey roots. A native of New Canaan, Connecticut, he was 5 years old when the Rangers won the Stanley Cup in 1994, which sparked his interest in the sport. "I don't think I would be playing hockey if the Rangers hadn't won the Cup in 1994," he said.
