TAMPA, Fla. — Henrik Lundqvist stopped 38 shots to rebound from two subpar performances and help the New York Rangers shut down the Tampa Bay Lightning 5-1 on Friday night in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference finals.
Rick Nash had two goals and an assist, and former Lightning captain Martin St. Louis ended a playoff scoring drought with a third-period goal for New York, which evened the best-of-seven series 2-2.
Game 5 is in New York on Sunday night.
Lundqvist allowed 12 goals in losing Games 2 and 3, but redeemed himself by handling nearly everything the Lightning threw at him.
