The Rangers faced the Ottawa Senators in another matchup of teams living in the NHL’s basement. And while this is a game you might expect the Rangers to win, the team from Canada’s capital would be the ones celebrating after sixty minutes with a 4-1 victory at Madison Square Garden.
Lias Andersson – The lone goal from the Rangers came from the Swedish rookie, scoring a shorthanded beauty to get the Rangers within two of Ottawa. Andersson faked to his backhand before sliding the puck to his forehand and tucking it behind fellow countryman Anders Nilsson for his second goal of the season.
