Rangers put ugly loss behind them with win over lowly Ducks
NY Post
The Rangers saw two ends to the NHL’s spectrum in three days, beginning with the defending Stanley Cup champions and ending with the third-to-last team in the league last season.
After an uninspiring performance in a loss to the Panthers earlier in the week, the Blueshirts took care of business with a 2-1 win over the lowly Ducks on Saturday night at Madison Square Garden to get back into the win column.
“I thought we played a pretty good game,” head coach Peter Laviolette said. “They’re a good team, they create a lot. I thought we defended pretty well. [Goalie Jonathan Quick] made some big saves when we needed, he made some big saves at the end of the game.
“It was good to get through it, get a win coming off the game before that.”
Ryan Lindgren, skating in his third game back from a stint on injured reserve following jaw surgery in the preseason, broke the scoring seal after hunting on offense all night long.
Sweeping in a feed from Artemi Panarin from behind the Ducks net, the 26-year-old defenseman scored his first goal of the season at the 4:13 mark of the third period. Panarin’s secondary assist on the play extended his season-opening point streak to eight straight games.

Wednesday was another positive day at Yankees camp.
