Another empty comeback, and the Blueshirts are staring down a crisis they can’t outrun.
The Rangers entered the second half of their backu2011tou2011back set on Tuesday night, facing the Los Angeles Kings at Crypto.com Arena in the midst of a fouru2011game West Coast road trip. They opened the swing with a 5–3 loss in Anaheim the night before and were looking to rebound quickly.
Head coach Mike Sullivan turned to former Kings legend Jonathan Quick, giving him what may be his final chance to start against his old team.
