A goaltending battle tonight between Swedes Henrik Lundqvist and Fredrick Andersen tonight in Toronto which frustrated skaters on both teams ended in the third round of the shootout as Mika Zibanejad scored for the Rangers and Nelson Kadri was stopped in the final round by Lundqvist.
Mats Zuccarello scored in the first round for the Rangers and Austin Matthews tied it 1-1 for Toronto in the second round.
The Rangers trailed 1-0 from the first period until J.T. Miller scored his 19th of the season with 9:11 left in the third period to tie the game at one. Both Lundqvist and Andersen put on a stellar show at the end of overtime thwarting chances on goal with amazing saves.
The Rangers return to action on Saturday in New Jersey taking on the Devils in a 5:00 PM Game.
