In a tightly contested match, the New York Rangers edged out the Vegas Golden Knights 2-1, thanks to a late goal from Adam Edstrom. This victory marks the Rangers' second consecutive win, improving their record to 4-1-1 after a rough stretch of games. Vincent Trocheck also contributed with a power-play goal, while Igor Shesterkin stood strong in net, making 29 saves.
The Golden Knights struggled offensively, with Mark Stone scoring their only goal on the power play. Despite Ivan Barbashev's return from injury and his immediate offensive attempt, Vegas has now lost back-to-back games for the first time in over a month.
