from Larry Brooks of the New York Post,
Look! There’s 21-year-old Ryan Lindgren, also promoted from Hartford on Monday, on the ice with that one-goal lead with 3:30 to go and springing Chris Kreider up the right side to ignite the play on which the defenseman’s 21-year-old partner Adam Fox slammed home a rebound for his first NHL score and a 3-1 lead with 2:36 remaining in the match.
Look! There’s 18-year-old Kaapo Kakko on the puck and creating more time and space for himself than he had in any of his previous nine NHL games, notching his second goal on a right wing power-play drive to tie the score 1-1 at 9:37 of the second period.
Look! There’s 23-year-old Alex Georgiev, who has outplayed Henrik Lundqvist through the opening weeks, outstanding yet again in stopping 29 of the 30 shots he faced, yielding only a two-on-one score that was the result of the worst five-man line change in NHL regular-season history.
And look!!! There is 32-year-old Marc Staal in street clothes, a healthy scratch for the first time in his 13-year NHL and Rangers career that encompasses 849 regular-season games.
Watch the game highlights of the 4-1 Rangers win over the Lightning below.
