James Reimer scheduled to start for Red Wings vs. Montreal. Derek Lalonde sounded like Fabbri (lower body) iffy, just played Tuesday after being sidelined three weeks. Dylan Larkin expected to be available, has been dealing with upper-body issue.
FINAL — #NYR 5, Red Wings 3 Third period aside, Rangers were much better 5v5 tonight. But that slip at the end is just no bueno.
Copp goal, Wings within 5-3 of Rangers with six and change to go
While I was busy writing my newspaper story, Michael Rasmussen spoiled Jonathan Quick's shutout bid at 7:55 and Klim Kostin scored again for DET 20 seconds later. It's 5-2, #NYR now, with under 8 minutes to go.
Kostin scores, Rangers lead at 5-2 on Wings.
A couple of quick goals from the Red Wings cut the #NYR lead to 5-2. There's 11:45 left to play.
Rasmussen scores in third period, off the post and in, it's 5-1 Rangers.
The Red Wings were 12-for-29 on the power play in their first seven games and they won five (5-1-1). They are 2-for-27 in the six games since, and short of a miracle comeback in the next 12 minutes they're about to lose their fourth (2-4-0).
