"This season, it's been No B.S. The only member of the New York Rangers who adhered to the latter motto in the club's 3-2 road loss to the Utah Mammoth on Saturday night was goaltender Jonathan Quick. Quick turned aside 31 of the 34 shots he faced, ending with a .912 save percentage. And the three goals that evaded him were hardly his fault. All came off either a broken play or a giveaway, more indicative of disjointed team play."
"Quickie was great, said defenseman Vladislav Gavrikov, who tipped in an Adam Fox shot in the first period for his third goal of the season. Made for us a couple huge saves, kept us in the game, and that's exactly what we need in the moment. Some of that is the nature of the Rangers' circumstances. They entered Saturday on a three-game skid that included losses to the division-leading Detroit Red Wings and Colorado Avalanche, and the high-powered Vegas Golden Knights."
Jonathan Quick stopped 31 of 34 shots (.912 save percentage) in a 3-2 road loss to the Utah Mammoth. The three goals allowed resulted from broken plays or giveaways rather than poor goaltending. Vladislav Gavrikov forced a first-period tally by tipping an Adam Fox shot for his third goal. Quick made several huge saves that kept the Rangers competitive. The team entered the game on a three-game skid and was concluding five games in eight nights while missing captain J.T. Miller and defenseman Will Borgen. The Rangers were outpaced in shot attempts and expected goals, and the power play failed on two opportunities, leaving the club disconnected.
