KLEIN NETS OVERTIME WINNER FOR RANGERS
Defenseman Kevin Klein netted the overtime winner as the Rangers edged the Penguins. The Blueshirts have earned at least one point in eight consecutive games against Metropolitan Division foes (7-0-1) and in eight of their past nine regular-season contests against Pittsburgh dating to April 2013 (5-1-3).

* Klein notched his second overtime goal and third game-winning tally of the season. He now has three game-winners in 25 contests this season after posting two in his previous 433 appearances. Klein is tied for the lead among NHL defensemen in overtime goals (2), game-winning goals (3) and even-strength goals (6).

* Rick Nash (1-0—1) scored his team-leading 18th goal of the season and extended his point streak to eight games (6-3—9), the longest by a Rangers player this season. Nash is one game shy of his career-best point streak of nine games (9-7—16) set from Dec. 30, 2005 to Jan. 16, 2006. Nash leads the Rangers in points (18-10—28) and ranks second in the League with 18 goals.

* Henrik Lundqvist made 32 saves to earn his 10th win of the season. Lundqvist has posted a 5-1-3 record, with a 2.02 goals-against average, a .932 save percentage and one shutout in his last nine regular-season appearances against the Penguins, including a 4-0-1 record at Madison Square Garden.
