The New York Rangers brought the offense, but the Devils combatted that with goalie Mackenzie Blackwood. He turned aside 47 shots as the Blueshirts brought the heat firing 43 shots from the second period on.
Mika Zibanejad fell awkwardly into the boards late in the third period and struggled to make it to the bench. He was visibly shaken and could not return in the final minutes as the Ranger pushed to equalize.
No update as to what may have happened to Mika or if there is a lingering concern.
