New York Rangers: Penalty kill rises to the occasion in Devils win

In a disjointed game, the New York Rangers were powered to a significant win over their Hudson River rivals thanks to a momentous effort from their penalty killers.

Alexandar Georgiev got the start in goal for the Blueshirts, who also sported some new-look lines for this match-up.

Kaapo Kakko was bumped up to the top line alongside Artemi Panarin and Ryan Strome, while Mika Zibanejad centered a second line between Brendan Lemieux and Pavel Buchnevich.

Chris Kreider was demoted to the third line alongside Filip Chytil and Jesper Fast, and Micheal Haley, Brett Howden and Brendan Smith made up the fourth line.
