Rangers Beat the Blackhawks 3-2

Oscar Lindberg scored in the second or third minute of play, and looked like the real thing all night long.  The Blackhawks tied it at one, but then Keith Yandle made a perfect pass to Klein for the one timer down low, and then Stepan scored as he trailed a two on none from Hayes and Kreider.   JT Miller had assists on the first two goals, and both Hayes and Kreider got assists on Stepan's and that's all the scoring the Rangers did tonight.

The second period was a bit of a disaster, but they only gave up one goal, and it was on a typical Giradi turnover.  He's just not what he used to be, and shouldn't be in the top pairing anymore.   Hanks was solid all night, as the Rangers did enough in the third to leave with the 3-2 win.

All four Ranger lines had good jump, and Yandle may be coming around.  All good signs.   A scary moment came late when McDonagh was hit in the throat by the puck, but it didn't look like he missed a shift.   Big win, which was delayed by the Blackhawks naming all of the citizens of Chicago during the banner hanging ceremony.  Sweet to beat em.
