FOUR-GOAL THIRD PERIOD POWERS RANGERS TO VICTORY
Trailing 4-2 entering the third period, the Rangers erupted for four goals in the final frame to rally form a multi-goal deficit and defeat the Golden Knights. Six different Rangers found the back of the net with the line of Mika Zibanejad (1-2—3, GWG), Pavel Buchnevich (1-1—2) and Chris Kreider (1-0—1) accounting for half of the offense and three of four third period goals.

* The Rangers won a game in which they trailed by at least two goals entering the third period for the first time since Jan. 7, 2017 (5-4 W vs. CBJ).

* Elias notes that the Rangers are the eighth team this season (180 GP) to stage a multi-goal, third period comeback victory and just the second to do so in regulation (also NSH: 6-5 W vs. PHI on Oct. 10).

* Rangers goaltender Henrik Lundqvist made 30 saves to earn his 408th career win and pass Glenn Hall for sole possession of ninth place on the NHL’s all-time list.

JETS, RED WINGS ALSO EARN WINS
The Jets (6-3-2, 14 points) and Red Wings (6-6-1, 13 points) both endured late pushes from the opposition to earn victories:

* Connor Hellebuyck made 28 saves to improve to 6-0-1 this season (1.91 GAA, .940 SV%) and push the Jets’ point streak to five games (3-0-2). Elias notes that Hellebuyck’s personal seven-game point streak to open the season matches the longest such run by a goaltender in Jets/Thrashers franchise history, tying Pasi Nurminen’s run of seven games (4-0-3) from Oct. 9-23, 2003.

* Red Wings forwards Dylan Larkin (1-1—2, GWG) and Darren Helm (1-1—2) posted multi-point efforts and goaltender Jimmy Howard made 30 saves to help the Red Wings post consecutive wins.

KELLER EXTENDS POINT STREAK, ROOKIE SCORING LEAD
Coyotes forward Clayton Keller tallied 1-1—2 to extend his point streak to seven games (6-5—11). Keller, who was selected seventh overall by the Coyotes in the 2016 NHL Draft, leads all rookies in goals (9) and points (15).

LAGACE LATEST TO START IN GOAL FOR GOLDEN KNIGHTS
Golden Knights goaltender Maxime Lagace – who made his NHL debut in relief on Oct. 30 (6-3 L vs. NYI) – made 32 saves in his first career start. Lagace is the fourth goaltender to appear for Vegas this season (also Marc-Andre Fleury, Malcolm Subban and Oscar Dansk). Elias notes the Golden Knights are the tenth team in NHL history to use at least four different goaltenders in its inaugural season.

* The record for most goaltenders to make an appearance by one team in any single season is seven (three times):

Kings (2007-08): Dan Cloutier, Daniel Taylor, Erik Ersberg, Jason LaBarbera, Jean-Sebastien Aubin,Jonathan Bernier and Jonathan Quick

Blues (2002-03): Brent Johnson, Chris Osgood, Cody Rudkowsky, Curtis Sanford, Fred Brathwaite,Reinhard Divis and Tom Barrasso

Nordiques (1989-90): Greg Millen, John Tanner, Mario Brunetta, Ron Tugnutt, Scott Gordon, Sergei Mylnikov and Stephane Fiset

* Goaltender Dylan Ferguson, who plays for the Kamloops Blazers of the Western Hockey League, was recalled on an emergency basis to back up Lagace. He is just the third goaltender with an NHL contract to be recalled from a Canadian Hockey League team under emergency conditions since 2001-02 (Olivier Michaud 2001-02 w/ MTL; Steve Mason: 2007-08 (twice) w/ CBJ; Jon-Paul Anderson: 2010-11 w/ SJS).
