On the night when Vic Hadfield was honored, Henrik Lundqvist stole a point.
As Hadfield’s No. 11 was raised to the Garden rafters in a pregame ceremony, it was Lundqvist’s 39-save performance that kept his flat team in the game during another brutal defensive performance. But he could only stop 1-of-3 shooters in the shootout, eventually leading to a 4-3 loss to the Jets on Sunday night.
The Rangers (13-12-3) have lost two in a row and four of five, suddenly forgetting how to defend and how to manage the puck.
