#NYR in similar spot as they were yesterday, up 2-1 over the #ALLCAPS with a period to play. Ended up allowing two goals in 1:53 to drop fourth straight.
Caps with a flurry of chances at the end of the second period, but a chaotic scene in front of the #NYR net resulted in more stumbling than shots on net. Rangers will head to the third nursing a 2-1 lead.
End 1P: #NYR 2, #ALLCAPS 0 SOG: 9-6 NYR Hits: 8-4 NYR Blocks: 7-3 WAS Turnovers: NYR 2; WAS 3 FO: 73% (11-for-15) WAS PP: NYR 0/1; WAS 0/1 HDCF: 5-2 NYR xGF: 0.9-0.86 NYR A solid start for the NYR, with the Panarin-Troch-Laf line driving the bus at 5v5 yet again.
#NYR up 2-0 over #ALLCAPS after 1. WSH's defense, which has been improved under Carbery, failed on both goals for NYR. Charlie Lindgren is playing back-to-back games and has been phenomenal early. Likely, we see #Isles Ilya Sorokin play both of their back-to-backs this Mon/Tue.
After 20, Caps trail Rangers 2-0 after goals from Panarin and Lafreniere. NYR up 9-6 in SOG.
Charlie Lindgren starting back-to-back today vs. the NYR, per @BaileyAJohnson_. The #ALLCAPS goalie is having a great season and has been outstanding vs. the Rangers. https://t.co/UfWAQB0eYk

Very different start for #NYR than the last three games. Currently 1 shot attempt compared to the @Capitals 14. #AllCaps dominating puck possession this first period.
Three-period takeaways from #stlblues 5-2 win over #NYR included sloppy opening period Blues somehow led in; power-play comes up with second key goal, Binnington plays large to extend lead; Blues withstand Rangers' push, Kyrou completes hat trick: https://t.co/vOX285nVHM
FINAL: The #NYR lose 5-2 to St. Louis. They are winless in their last three. New York has now given up 5+ goals 10 times this year. Opponents' rush attacks are still giving the Rangers fits, and New York had no answer for Jordan Kyrou tonight. He could've had five goals.
#NYR lose 5-2, goalie'd by Binnington for the most part. 1-3-1 in the last 5.
