Rangers Topple Hurricanes in Shocking Upset—What This Win Means for the Playoff Race
Somehow, the Rangers emerged from a lopsided opening 20 minutes with a 1-0 lead.
Carolina limited the visitors to just four shots on goal in the first period, but Noah Laba found the back of the net on what was the team’s second shot at the 16:53 mark. From the right faceoff circle, Laba picked the far corner on Canes goalie Frederik Andersen to snap a nine-game stretch without a goal.
The Rangers struggled to stay out of the penalty box in the second period. While one or two were questionable, the Rangers were called for three consecutive penalties and, as a result, weren’t able to find any rhythm at five-on-five.
