Adam Fox (4th/PP) and Chris Kreider (8th/PP) give the guests a 2-0 lead, while Carolina does not enter the game. In the second half, Rangers made the score 3-0 through Ryan Strom (37 minutes), and shortly after the start of the last half, the New York team fell 4-0 thanks to Kreder’s second goal (44).

The hosts’ rebellion was stifled after Vincent Trochek’s goal (49) to make it 4-1 again in the same minute through 5-1 to Philippe Chettel. In the 57th minute, Max Dome reduced the difference to 2: 5 from the perspective of the hosts before Andrew Kopp (58) made the score 6: 2.
