ANAHEIM, Calif. — Kevin Klein had the first two-goal game of his 11-year N.H.L. career, scoring the tiebreaking goal with less than seven minutes to play in the Rangers’ 2-1 victory over the Anaheim Ducks on Wednesday night.
Klein also scored a tying goal in the second period for the Rangers (40-23-7), who opened a three-game California trip with their second win in five games over all. Klein, a defenseman, had played 555 regular-season games and 67 playoff games with Nashville and the Rangers before his first two-goal performance.
Antti Raanta made 22 saves in the Rangers’ second victory over Anaheim this season.
