GARDEN PARTY - With tonight’s win, the Rangers improved to 4-1-1 over their last six games and notched their 32nd win of the season - tied for the second most in the NHL. New York has points in eight-straight games (7-0-1) against the Lightning, and is 5-1-0 when wearing its third jerseys.

SHUTTING THE DOOR - At home, the Rangers improved to 15-0-0 when allowing three or fewer goals in a game.

  • Jonathan Quick made 18 saves on 19 shots to earn his third-straight win and improve to 12-4-2 this season. Quick became the oldest goaltender in franchise history with a three- game winning streak and the second active netminder with a run of that length at age 38 or older, joining Marc-Andre Fleury (7 GP & 3 GP in 2022-23).
  • Jimmy Vesey recorded his 10th and 11th goals of the season and his second multi-goal contest of the season (Nov. 18 at NJD).
