Jimmy Vesey is hugged by Kevin Hayes after he scored the game-winning shootout goal in the Rangers' 5-4 win Saturday night.

COLUMBUS, Ohio — They won it, they lost it. They won it again, they lost it again.

In the end, this coach’s nightmare of a game finished the Rangers’ quick two-game road trip with a 5-4 shootout win against the Blue Jackets on Saturday night at Nationwide Arena. It was as wild a back-and-forth affair as has happened under David Quinn’s watch, and it ended when Jimmy Vesey scored the game-winner in the fifth round of the skills competition, making the Rangers 4-0 in shootouts this season.
