"NEW YORK The New York Rangers and the St. Louis Blues entered the third period tied at one. This was a similar position to what New York had found itself in during the final two games of its Western road trip in Denver and Salt Lake City. Both those games, of course, the Rangers lost. On Monday night at Madison Square Garden, they held off the Blue just enough to secure their second home win of the season."
"Gavrikov assisted on both of New York's third period goals. Forty seconds in, his point shot was deflected in by Lafreniere. Just before the nine-minute mark, Gavrikov started another scoring play from the point, where he fed Sam Carrick on the left flank, then went to the net. When a point shot went wide, he slid a nifty backhand pass in front to Edstrom, who put New York up by two."
Game was tied 1-1 entering the third period after earlier scores. The Rangers secured a 3-2 victory over the Blues at Madison Square Garden, marking their second home win of the season. Alexis Lafreniere and Adam Edstrom scored early in the third period to give New York a lead. The team surrendered a late goal to Brayden Schenn with 1:15 remaining and took two high-sticking penalties in the final six minutes, but held on. Vladislav Gavrikov assisted on both third-period goals, played through an upper-body hit, and provided strong net-front presence praised by coach Mike Sullivan.
