Rangers Recap: Stale Penguins a step behind NY all night, lose 4-2

For the first time in 15 games Ryan Poehling is back from injury. That bumps Danton Heinen from the lineup which otherwise is the same and an encouraging development given the bumps that Jan Rutta and Jeff Petry took last game.

First period

Not a great start for Pittsburgh, Vladimir Tarasenko made a really good defensive play to deny a centering pass and then Artemi Panarin made an even nicer bank pass off the wall to send Mika Zibanejad on a clean breakaway.
