The New York Rangers dropped an entertaining match in a 4-3 loss to the New Jersey Devils at Madison Square Garden. The Rangers lineup featured a full slate of the young stars who are the future of the team, but also a number of players getting a chance to show what they can do.
Headline #1: Artemi Panarin was injured.
He sustained a mild groin strain in the second period and sat out the last 6:16 of the period and didn’t play at all in the third. There was no reason for him to continue to play and risk making it worse.
