Artemi Panarin, Mika Zibanejad score pair each as New York Rangers beat Vancouver Canucks 6-4
Artemi Panarin scored twice and notched an assist as the New York Rangers stretched their win streak to six games Wednesday, downing the Vancouver Canucks 6-4.
New York’s Igor Shesterkin stopped 25-of-29 shots and Arturs Silovs made 22 saves for Vancouver in his NHL debut. The Canucks got back within a goal 8:51 into the third period when Kuzmenko fired a shot under Shesterkin’s glove from the top of the slot, cutting the Rangers’ lead to 5-4. It was the Russian’s 23rd goal of the season.
Kuzmenko used some dazzling stick work to get around Adam Fox, but his ensuing shot pinged off the crossbar. Garland picked up the errant puck and sent a backhanded shot in past Shesterkin at the 9:26 mark. Mikkola launched a long rocket and Panarin tipped it in past Silovs from the low slot for his 20th goal of the season at the 15:36 mark.
