This time the New York Rangers rookies closed the deal.
The Blueshirts kids did the same thing on Saturday that they’d done 22 hours earlier by scoring the game’s first two goals at the PPL Center in Allentown, Pennsylvania. But instead of blowing the lead and losing in overtime, the Rangers kept their collective foot on the gas this time, never let the Flyers get even and controlled play for most of the game in what turned out to be a 5-2 win.
Three players who have legit hopes of opening the regular season on the roster put their best foot forward.
