But the Rangers didn't make it easy on Quick, who was vying to become the first United States goalie to reach 400 career wins. After squandering a three-goal lead, the Rangers traded goals in the third period before losing 5-4 in overtime on Jamie Benn's powerplay goal.
Alexis Lafreniere scored his first goal in 14 games when he gave the Rangers a 1-0 lead in the first period. Lafreniere took a drop pass from Panarin and fired it past Oettinger to end a lengthy drought at 6:56 of the first period.
With the Rangers leading 4-3 late in the third, K’Andre Miller seemed to be in control while with the puck in the defensive zone. A forechecking Sam Steel changed that. He charged at Miller, breaking up an attempted pass behind the net to seize possession. He fed Harley for the game-tying goal.
Oettinger stopped 33 of 35 shots in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win versus Utah. Utah offered quick responses to Dallas' first two goals, but Oettinger never let the visitors get ahead. He then picked up his third straight win when Thomas Harley scored in overtime.
Jamie Benn scored a power-play goal 2:17 into overtime as the Dallas Stars ran their winning streak to five games by rallying from an early three-goal deficit for a 5-4 victory over the host New York Rangers on Tuesday night.
Harley seems to have found his groove offensively. He had a three point night against New York, including one goal and two assists. This comes right on the heels of his overtime winning goal in the previous game against Utah. He now has six points in his last four games.
Vincent Trocheck gave the Rangers a 4-3 lead with just over seven minutes remaining when he tipped in a Mika Zibanejad shot from in front of the net — occupying the power-play spot that usually belongs to an injured Chris Kreider — for his second goal of the game to snap a brutal 1-for-31 stretch from the unit.
In a back-and-forth affair, the Rangers ended up pulling ahead to defeat the Devils 3-2 at Madison Square Garden.
Igor Shesterkin was back from injury. The special teams were vastly improved. Adam Fox finally scored against a goaltender. And
PHILADELPHIA — Casey DeSmith stopped 27 shots to lead the Dallas Stars to their sixth straight victory, 4-1 over the Philadelphia Flyers on Thursday night.
