RANGERS NOTES
1967-91 - THE NEW GARDEN – The Rangers recognized the rebirth that took place during the 1967-91 period, including a new home arena and bringing Rangers hockey to more fans than ever through television.
HOME COOKING – New York has earned points in four-straight games at home (2-0-2).
UP AGAINST MONTREAL – The Rangers extended their point streak against the Canadiens to nine-straight games, tied for their longest point streak against them since the 1939-40 season. New York has recorded multiple multi-goal comeback wins against Montreal in a single season for the second time since 1967-68 and the third time in franchise history (2019-20 & 1941-42).
MULTI-POINT MAYHEM – Five different Rangers registered a multi-point game tonight (Will Cuylle, Conor Sheary, Noah Laba, Matthew Robertson, J.T. Miller).
J.T. Miller scored the game-winning, overtime goal, his second of the season, and tallied his second multi-goal game of the year. He has registered six points (1G-5A) through his last six games.
Artemi Panarin scored his first career penalty-shot goal, becoming the fifth Rangers player to score one against the Canadiens and the first to do so since Camille Henry (Mar. 8, 1958).
