It was Lundqvist’s 21st win in his last 25 starts against Carolina.“Some teams, the matchup just works for you for some reason,” Lundqvist said. “I have some teams where it works the other way. It’s hard to explain sometimes. I think the big thing is to not overthink it, good or bad.”Vladislav Namestnikov got the tiebreaking goal early in the third period, and fourth-line forward Connor Brickley also scored for the Rangers, who split a four-game trip.The Hurricanes, who are 16-6-1 since Dec. 31 Cam Talbot Jersey , got a second-period goal from Jordan Martinook and peppered Lundqvist with 18 shots in the third period but couldn’t get anything past him.

They outshot the Rangers 44-26 and were in control much of the game.“It was the best game we’ve played, probably of the last seven or eight,” Hurricanes coach Rod Brind’Amour said. “it just didn’t work out.”The Hurricanes weren’t exactly thrilled with the quality of their scoring chances on Lundqvist.“He played well but I don’t know if we did enough to get anything by him,” Martinook said.After a scoreless first period Youth Darnell Nurse Jersey , Martinook gave Carolina a 1-0 lead at 9:53 in the second. He was able to gather a rebound of Dougie Hamilton’s shot and beat Lundqvist.Just 47 seconds later, the Rangers tied the game on Brickley’s first goal of the season. Filip Chytil flipped a backhand shot at McElhinney and the puck bounced off the goalie’s right shoulder. Brickley was charging the net and it caromed off of his upper body and in. The goal was originally ruled no good on the ice but overturned on video replay.The Hurricanes had killed off a two-man advantage by the Rangers but Namestikov scored just 2 seconds after the second penalty expired at 6:10 in the third period. McElhinney stopped the first shot by defenseman Tony DeAngelo and the rebound effort by right wing Pavel Buchnevich but couldn’t deny Namestikov.The Hurricanes have been the talk of the NHL this week for the attention, and criticism, they’ve drawn for their postgame celebrations.But Lundqvist made sure there wasn’t any reason to celebrate with another win over the Hurricanes.“It was a fun game to win, the way we battled,” Lundqvist said.NOTES: The Hurricanes ended a 16-game losing streak at New York on Feb. 8.

The Pacific Division remains compacted at the top heading into Thanksgiving weekend, a time when NHL teams in playoff position traditionally hold those spots until the end of the regular season.The Vancouver Canucks were at the top of those standings two weeks ago Kailer Yamamoto Jersey , but currently sit in third after losing their past six games heading into their matchup Wednesday night at the Anaheim Ducks.“We’ve got to find a way to get some energy and get some life,” Vancouver center Sam Gagner told The Province after a 6-3 loss to the visiting Winnipeg Jets on Monday night, the third time in the past four games the Canucks have allowed at least five goals.Article continues below ...The Ducks (8-9-5) are fourth in the Pacific Division, one point behind Vancouver (10-11-2).Anaheim has managed to stay close to the front pack by earning at least a point in six of the past nine games (3-3-3). The Ducks have pushed their past two opponents to overtime, but lost both games during the five-minute period.Anaheim was stung by injuries at forward during the early part of the season, but now it’s the defense that’s having to plug holes.Cam Fowler was struck in the face by the puck Nov. 12 against the visiting Nashville Predators and underwent surgery on Friday to repair multiple facial fractures. Hampus Lindholm missed the overtime loss to the Colorado Avalanche on Sunday with an upper-body injury.Anaheim was already starting rookie defensemen Marcus Pettersson and Jacob Larsson, but Andy Welinski and Josh Mahura were recalled from the San Diego Gulls of the American Hockey League last week to replace Fowler and Lindholm Womens Kris Russell Jersey , putting four rookie defensemen in the lineup against Colorado.“We have some key players on our team out, but we have all the confidence in the world with guys coming up and down from San Diego,” said Anaheim defenseman Brandon Montour, who has only one full season of experience in the NHL.The Canucks will be without their top goal scorer from last season.Brock Boeser has missed the past eight games with a groin injury and the right wing did not accompany Vancouver on the three-game road trip that begins in Anaheim.Alexander Edler, the top-scoring defenseman for the Canucks last season, is reportedly on the trip after missing the past 13 games with a knee injury, and backup goalie Anders Nilsson is also in Anaheim after sitting out since Oct. 25 with a broken finger.“You face adversity and you take it head on Leon Draisaitl Jersey ,” Vancouver coach Travis Green told The Province. “There’s no whining or crying about injuries. It’s a good opportunity for young guys. It’s a challenge and they have to accept it.”Anaheim goaltender John Gibson missed the Colorado game because of the flu, but appears well after the Ducks sent backup Kevin Boyle back down to San Diego on Tuesday.Gibson has played well in his career against the Canucks, owning a 6-2-1 record, .938 save percentage and 1.56 goals-against average — his lowest against any NHL team he has faced more than twice.
