NY Rangers Have Six Players on Impressive Points Streaks

Per NHL.com, he is one of six Rangers players who are currently riding point streaks. He became the first goalie in franchise history to score a goal, putting the puck in the Lightning’s empty net last week before recording an assist on the empty-net goal from winger Eeli Tolvanen against the Mammoth.

That was the third goal of the season for Tolvanen, who signed a one-year deal with the team right before training camp got underway. He is riding the longest active goal streak in the NHL at three games, making an immediate impact with his new team as a middle-six forward.

Tolvanen isn’t the only New York player who is riding an NHL-high points streak. Defenseman Adam Fox has recorded a point in three straight games, posting four assists in that stretch. Winger Gabe Perreault is also riding a three-game point streak, producing two goals and one assist.

A healthy Fox elevates this team to another level with his steady play at the blue line and quarterbacking of the first power-play unit. Perreault was touted as a breakout candidate all summer and thus far is living up to the billing as a top-six forward.

Along with Shesterkin, forwards Will Cuylle and Tye Kartye are also riding scoring streaks of two games. Both of them have two assists during that stretch, helping set their teammates up for success offensively.

However, it isn’t just on offense that the duo is making an impact. They are getting it done on both ends of the ice, bringing physicality to the lineup. Cuylle has a team-high 12 hits, while Kartye is second with 11.

All six of them will be looking to keep those streaks alive when the Rangers take the ice against the New York Islanders on Oct. 6.
