Rangers play much better, survive against Panthers

The Rangers may have hit rock bottom on Saturday, but at least they rebounded last night against the first place Florida Panthers. The Rangers really controlled the first two periods before letting up a bit in the third with their 2-0 lead. They gave up one and made us all sweat, but held on for the 4-2 win.

The Blueshirts really controlled play in the first two periods, not only limiting shot attempts, but limiting high quality chances for the Panthers. It unraveled a little bit at the end of the second, but you can see how the Rangers really need to stop with that shell they play in the third period.
