New York ran out of time on Sunday night in a 2-1 road loss to the Nashville Predators. Jonny Brodzinski got the Rangers to within a goal with 37 seconds left after Nashville took a 2-0 lead 11 seconds earlier by scoring into an empty net. Jonathan Quick made 30 saves in the hard-luck loss. New York played without captain J.T. Miller, who left Saturday’s game against the Philadelphia Flyers with an apparent upper-body injury. Miller could miss additional time with the ailment.
Ethen Frank scored both goals for the Capitals on Sunday, including the game-tying marker with 9:38 remaining in regulation, before the host Detroit Red Wings scored with 24 seconds left in overtime to sweep a home-and-home series with a 3-2 victory. Dylan Strome assisted on both of Frank’s goals.
Washington won the first meeting between the teams, taking a 1-0 road win on Oct. 12. Artemi Panarin leads the Rangers with 13 goals and 36 points, while Mika Zibanejad has 12 tallies. Igor Shesterkin is 15-11-3 in 29 starts with a shutout, a .908 save percentage, and 2.54 goals against average. The Caps are led by Tom Wilson’s 17 goals and 34 points, with captain Alex Ovechkin and Jakob Chychrun each scoring 14 thus far. Logan Thompson is 14-8-3 in 25 starts with three shutouts, a .924 save percentage, and an NHL-leading 2.09 GAA.
