Thursday night, the New York Rangers game against the rival Islanders was the typical matchup between the two teams — high scoring and fast-paced. Something else that is pretty common for the Blueshirts also happened — they surrendered a two-goal lead.
After scoring two quick goals, the Islanders quickly answered back with two of their own and would win the game 7-5 thanks to an Anthony Beauvillier hat-trick. This ended the Rangers point streak at seven games and was the seventh straight loss to their foes from Long Island.
