Another test for the Rangers tonight. The Stars have also started the season strong, and won’t be an easy team to overcome.
Shesterkin in net tonight...outside of the Vancouver game, this might be the toughest matchup so far this year
Dallas with the first good chance, but Johnston shoots it wide as he was covered by the defense
It's been the Lafreniere show so far, 3 shots...also set up Panarin for a solid chance
Pitlick draws a PP...Duchesne looked like he got either an elbow or stick up when Pitlick went for the hit
Second unit looked better than the first unit, but yeah, not a great PP.
Now a too many men on the NYR...7 guys on the ice
Solid PK for the Rangers...0 shots given up
Back to the PP for the Rangers, Trocheck tripped this time
Trocheck only guy who knows where the puck is and gets a wraparound with Wedgewood looking the wrong way
Solid first period, 1-0 lead. Dallas though are a tremendous 2nd period team this year, have outscored their opponents 23-10 in the middle frame
Dallas come out in the second and get 5 of the first 6 shots on net...now shots 5-5 in the second
Dallas has sure had some good chances, but have missed connection, or missed the net on most of them
Still one zip, out of town and no game on. 😪
Rangers stuck out on the ice for a long time...Schneider and Jones out for near 3 minutes here
Kakko with the ol' pass into the net
