Rangers’ new philosophy yields familiar results in loss to Flames

A lot of shots, just not a lot of good ones.

The Rangers peppered the Flames with 45 shots, but still managed to lose 4-1 on Sunday night at the Garden.

With the new philosophy of shooting more and crashing the net, the Blueshirts were able to create an ample amount of decent scoring chances. But they struggled to beat goalie David Rittich and lost for the sixth time in the first eight games of this rebuilding season.

The Rangers (2-5-1) had three days without a game preceding this contest, having previously lost a 4-3 overtime game to the Capitals in Washington on Wednesday night.
