A couple of fresh faces, and a much better performance. This is the kind of game that makes the Rangers hopeful about the future.

With recent call-ups Filip Chytil and Ryan Lindgren both making their season debuts, the Rangers took a dramatic 4-1 win over the Lightning on Tuesday night at the Garden.

The Rangers (4-5-1) had been struggling to gain any traction early in this season, having lost an ugly 7-4 game to the Bruins on Sunday night, their sixth loss in the past seven games.
