DENVER - While Rick Nash rested his tight back Friday night, the rookie who has put the Rangers' scoring load on his back continued to deliver.
Swedish left wing Oscar Lindberg scored the game-winner in a 2-1 Rangers comeback win over the Colorado Avalanche at Pepsi Center, netting the second of two goals scored in a span of 21 seconds in the pivotal second period of the Blueshirts' fourth straight win.
New dad center Derek Stepan ripped home a game-tying power play goal at 12:42 of the second, and then Lindberg scored his seventh of the season - tied for a team-high with Mats Zuccarello - by banking a side-angle shot from the goal line off the inside of the blocker of Avs goaltender Reto Berra (31 saves).
