Rangers Star Makes History In Ugly Win
A win is a win, and in the end it doesn't matter tonight.
They got the two points. History won't remember the details. Rangers prevail 4-3 in overtime over the Chicago Blackhawks, arguably the worst team in the league, and very much shorthanded.
The Rangers blew a 3-1 lead in the third period to hand Chicago their first point since Jan. 19.
Thankfully the Rangers escaped with a win, and it's all thanks to Mika Zibanejad, who scored the overtime game winner and sets the franchise record for the most overtime goals with eight.
Check out the goal here:
It should be noted, Mika Zibanejad hasn't scored in seven straight games and hasn't had a 5v5 goal since the calendar turned to 2024, a total of 16 straight games, with his last coming Dec. 29 in Florida.
A win is a win, the Rangers win their fourth straight game.
