Scouting Report:
The Rangers won the first three games of a western Canadian road trip with wins in Calgary, Edmonton and Vancouver before ending it with Friday’s loss in Columbus. The Panthers haven’t beaten the Rangers at MSG since 2013 — a span of five consecutive losses. (Miami Herald)
Scouting Report:
Despite the fact the Rangers have started 13-5-0, are leading the league in scoring and have a plus-32 goal differential, and though that loss in Columbus was just the second defeat in 10 games, it was not easy to accept — especially for (Henrik) Lundqvist.
