Something about the Carolina Hurricanes brings out the best in Henrik Lundqvist and the New York Rangers.
With the 6-2 victory, New York has now won 16 games in a row against the Hurricanes at the Garden and the timing could not have been more perfect.
New York was coming off a poor performance against the Blue Jackets and a new face in the lineup with Ryan Lindgren making his NHL debut. Head coach David Quinn wanted to see a better effort from his team, and they did just that.
Right from the get-go, New York was hard on the puck forcing Carolina to turn the puck over.
