The season did not end with a whimper for the Rangers, but with a bang.
In a game that should have meant more to the Boston Bruins than the Rangers, the Rangers closed out an emotional week, and a weird, up-and-down season by scoring four goals in the third period to come from behind and beat the Bruins, 5-4, on Saturday. The Rangers halted a five-game losing streak in their season finale.
Mika Zibanejad scored two goals, including the game-winner, which was his 200th NHL goal, and ended the season with 50 points, on 24 goals and 26 assists.
