This time, Madison Square Garden wasn’t a House of Horrors for the home team, as the New York Rangers played a diligent 60 minutes and produced just enough offense to edge the St. Louis Blues 3-2 on Monday night.
The win was only the second this season on home ice for the Rangers (11-11-2), who are 2-7-1 now at MSG. And it came at a good time since it ended their longest losing streak of the season at four.
Alexis Lafreniere and Adam Edstrom scored third-period goals for the Rangers, after the teams entered the final stanza tied 1-1.
