You mean the "Back-to-Back Champion Penguins". You can't say that now, can you???? So what we lost 10-1. Losing 4-2 or 10-1, a loss is a loss is a loss. It's a long season Bronx. Both our teams should be there at the start of the playoffs.

Rangers lose to the Fishstix, 4-3, in a SO 1-5-2


David Desharnais, Mats Zuccarello and Kevin Hayes scored, and Henrik Lundqvist finished with 35 saves for the Rangers, who earned a point for the second straight game but lost their fifth straight (0-3-2) to fall to 1-5-2. It's their fewest points after eight games since they were 1-6-1 to start the 1959-60 season. Back then, teams got a point for a tie, and there was no overtime or shootouts.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

NEW YORK (AP) Their youth and a new-look fourth line helped the New York Rangers get a needed win.

Pavel Buchnevich scored twice and added an assist, rookie Boo Nieves had three assists and the Rangers beat the winless Arizona Coyotes 5-2 Thursday night.

Michael Grabner had two goals, Chris Kreider also scored and Ondrej Pavelec stopped 27 shots to help New York get just its third victory of the season in the finale of a season-high six-game homestand.

''I think we just meshed really well - me, Grabner and Buchnevich,'' said Nieves, who was called up from Hartford of the AHL on Tuesday. ''Grabner is a really fast player like me so it's easy to keep up with him. A guy like Buchnevich can put the puck just about anywhere. They made my transition here pretty easy.''

New York shook up its line combinations and played with a traditional lineup consisting of 12 forwards and six defensemen for the first time in a week. It helped the Rangers beat Arizona for the eighth straight time, dating back to March 24, 2014.

Jimmy Vesey, Mats Zuccarello, Chris Kreider, Pavel Buchnevich and Michael Grabner also scored to help New York win for the third time in seven games (3-2-2). Zibanejad also had assists on the first two goals in the third.
