J.T. Miller did it again for the Rangers. One game after his overtime winner, Miller notched a pair of goals in quick succession in the second period to seal it for the Rangers early. Miller regained a two-goal lead with a perfectly placed wrist shot over Eddie Lack, then stole the puck from Noah Hanifin before making a great deke on Lack for his second of the game and a three goal lead.
The Rangers controlled most of this game, as most of the action and better scoring chances were in Carolina’s zone. The third period was a little skewed due to score effects, and the fact that Rick Nash probably wishes he didn’t play that period, but that’s how the NHL is nowadays.
