The Rangers winning streak ended at three after a clunker at the Garden today, getting shutout 4-0 by the Panthers. Henrik Lundqvist allowed three goals on 23 shots before being pulled in the second period for Steve Valiquette. The Rangers did plaster Panther goalie Craig Anderson with 43 shots, but all were turned away.
Monzo: Not much to say here. The Rangers have had two afternoon games this season and have lost them both. The team brought absolutely nothing to the table today. The key was to get out of the first period with a lead, but they could not get anything going. Can’t put much blame on Lundqvist — each of the goals he gave up was to a wide open player, including a breakaway to Ville Peltonen. Stephen Weiss and Gregory Campbell both netted goals shortly afterwards. The Rangers now have a few days to prepare for the Penguins Wednesday night at MSG.
Also, no decision has been made yet on Petr Prucha, however it is looking more and more likely he is going to be sent to Hartford on a conditioning assignment.
More tomorrow…
