RANGERS VS SABRES WINTER CLASSIC POST GAME WRAP UP

MILLER PROPELS RANGERS PAST SABRES IN WINTER CLASSIC


Tied 2-2 with the Man Advantage J.T. Miller scored the Power Play Goal that ended the game and gave the Rangers their fourth Outdoor game win 2:43 into the overtime period.

The Rangers took a first period 2 goal lead on tallies by Paul Carey and Michael Grabner but too many penalties started taking their toll and starting the second period with Ryan McDonagh serving the remaining time on his tripping penalty carried over from the first period Buffalo cut the lead 2-1. 

The Rangers were able to stave off a rejuvenated Sabres team into the third period when Sam Reinhart tied the game 2- 2 eventually leading to the overtime period. Sabres Jose Josefeson tripped Jimmy Vesey just after the teams had changed sides for the middle of overtime which led to Miller's game winner. 

The Rangers are the first team with 4 outdoor wins and Henrik Lundqvist became the first goalie with 4 outdoor wins.

With Today’s win, Henrik Lundqvist tied Tony Esposito for 8th on the all time NHL wins list.
