Recap: Rangers Lose Third in a Row

Photo by Bruce Bennett/Getty ImagesAfter a brutal third period loss against Edmonton, the Rangers returned home to take on the Metro-leading New Jersey Devils. Despite shaking up the middle six, the result was all too familiar, as the Rangers dropped the decision 5-3.

Perhaps a change of scenery was just what Artemi Panarin needed, as he was not shy about shooting, and he snapped his 12 game-goal drought early in the first period. K’Andre Miller hit Filip Chytil with a stretch pass to create a two-on-one. Chytil’s ensuing pass crossed the royal road and found Panarin, who buried the wrister.
