Devils at Rangers: Rangers Defeat Devils in Shootout, 4-3

The New York Rangers returned home to Madison Square Garden Sunday night, after a strong road win in Columbus the night before. Their opponent? None other than their cross-river rivals, the New Jersey Devils, in the clubs’ first meeting of the season.

The Rangers played another strong game, despite some lapses. They ended up with 41 shots on goal again, in what is a very encouraging sign for an offense that had failed to consistently generate many chances before these two weekend games.

The Devils scored first on a Jesper Bratt breakaway goal, and took that 1-0 lead into the first intermission.
