Rangers play 66% of a hockey game, get goalie’d again in loss to Devils

Igor Shesterkin and Mackenzie Blackwood were the story in this one. The Rangers had no business being in this one in the first, but Shesterkin stood tall. Then the Devils had no business being in the game in the second and third, yet Blackwood stood tall. Unfortunately for the Rangers, two flukey goals were the difference in this one.

Listen, the Rangers are injured. They are short on talented depth. They were basically playing a youth hockey team up front and AHLers on defense. Yet they still showed up and put up a good game.
