Today is October 17th. All right, so tough night for the Rangers on the road. They fell to the Columbus Blue Jackets, 1-0, in overtime. Kent Johnson scored the game winner with just a minute 33 left on the clock. Jet Greaves was a wall and net for Columbus, achieving his fifth career shutout. He turned away 29 shots, which is no small feat, you got to love that kind of performance when you need it most. The goal came from a slick play where Charlie Coyle set up Zach Wrensky, who dished to Johnson in the slot. Johnson fired off his fourth goal of the season, landing the Blue Jackets their first win after two losses. That's got to feel good for them.
For the Rangers, Dylan Garand made 28 saves, but they just couldn't find the back of the net themselves.
They had three powerplay opportunities late in the third, but couldn't capitalize. Tough break, especially as they dropped their last two games. Looking ahead, the Rangers will be back home to host the Anaheim Ducks on Monday. They'll need to shake this off and come back strong, that's for sure.
