Alexis Lafrenière is playing the best hockey of his career, Pavel Dorofeyev finally scored, and help in goal may be on the way from Hartford.
The New York Rangers struggled on the road again, holding just one victory in seven away attempts this season following a matchup with the Ottawa Senators. Alexis Lafrenière scored a late second-period goal to keep the team competitive, while Pavel Dorofeyev also scored, but goaltender Dylan Garand faced challenges in net.
Writer Eric Kohn noted that Garand posted negative goals saved above expected for the second straight contest. The analysis highlighted that New York must adjust expectations in goal with starter Igor Shesterkin currently sidelined, though potential goaltending reinforcements could soon arrive from Hartford.
