The New York Rangers won their fifth straight game 3-0 over the New York Islanders and took over first place in the Eastern Conference. Carl Hagelin provided much of the offense with two goals while Henrik Lundqvist took care of all 28 shots that managed to get through for his third shutout of the season.
Both of Hagelin’s goals had Michael Del Zotto and Ryan Callahan involved with Del Zotto being the key player on each showing his confidence is flying right now. The first goal was created by Del Zotto making a phenomenal stick-handling move to dance around Frans Nielsen and fire the puck on net. Callahan was denied but the puck got moved over to Hagelin for the easy finish.
The second goal was Del Zotto bring the puck into the zone, feeding Callahan and continuing down low where Callahan gave it back before the feed to Hagelin in the slot for the finish. Gaborik finished it off with the empty-netter for his league leading 22nd goal.
New York did a great j...

As Henrik Lundqvist normally does after a shutout at MSG, he threw his stick into the crowd after being named first star last night, which obviously caused a full WWE battle royal in the stands.
