The New York Rangers made sure new coach Mike Sullivan had a happy homecoming in his return to Pittsburgh.
Adam Fox scored two goals and assisted on another, Igor Shesterkin continued his fast start by making 18 saves and the Rangers avenged their opening-night loss to the Penguins with a 6-1 victory at PPG Paints Arena on Saturday night.
It was Sullivan’s first game in the arena he called home for the past 10 seasons. He got a warm reception from the crowd of 16,716 in recognition for his team-record 409 regular-season wins and leading the Penguins to Stanley Cup championships in 2016 and 2017.
