02/23/2007 - New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Zach Parise and Jamie Langenbrunner scored in the shootout, sending the New Jersey Devils to a sweep of the New York Rangers, 3-2, in the back end of a home-and-home series at Madison Square Garden.
Parise was the first to skate in the shootout, and made a quick move before sending a beautiful backhand shot up and over the glove of Henrik Lundqvist.
Michael Nylander then took his turn for the Rangers, using the same move as Parise to best Martin Brodeur at the other end.
Patrick Elias and Sergei Brylin both had shots denied for New Jersey, while Marcel Hossa and Matt Cullen were turned away by Brodeur. Langenbrunner's wrist shot then glanced off Lundqvist and went straight up and over the netminder, who tried to reach for it, but the puck had already crossed the goal line.
With the crowd roaring, Petr Prucha was the final skater for New York, but his shot hit the crossbar to seal the win for New Jersey.
Parise had a goal in regulation and Brian Rafalski also scored for the Devils, who edged the Rangers 2-1 on Tuesday at the Meadowlands. New Jersey has won three in a row and four of its last five games, despite playing without leading goal-scorer Brian Gionta, who missed his second straight game due to a groin injury.
Brodeur finished with 28 saves for the Devils.
Hossa and Prucha both tallied for the Rangers, who have dropped three of their last four games. Lundqvist turned aside 24-of-26 shots in a losing cause.
Down 2-1 in the third, New Jersey tied things up in dramatic fashion. Travis Zajac won the faceoff, and the Devils quickly moved through the neutral zone before Zajac sent a wrist shot toward the net. Lundqvist made the initial save, but Parise was there to poke the rebound past the sliding netminder at 12:47 to make it 2-2.
New Jersey had a huge power play opportunity in the overtime session, as Jaromir Jagr was whistled for interfering with the goaltender, but the Devils couldn't convert on the man-advantage.
The Rangers successfully killed all five Devils power plays, while New Jersey finished 1-for-2 on the man-advantage.
Hossa, who was questionable at game time due to an upper-body injury, collected a forward pass by Marek Malik, skated in on a breakaway and wristed a shot past a sprawling Brodeur on the stick-side just 1:38 after the opening faceoff.
Prucha extended the Rangers edge to 2-0 with a power-play tally in the middle stanza. With Mike Rupp off for holding, Jagr was the catalyst to the score, as he surged toward the net off the left side, had a shot glance off the pad of Brodeur, and continued banging away at the disc. Nylander also took a stab at the puck, but Prucha got his stick on it, directing it over the goal line at 9:20.
The Devils finally scratched the scoreboard to cut their deficit to 2-1 at 13:34. Langenbrunner battled with Rafalski along the right boards, and Rafalski rifled a slap per from the top of the right circle that caromed off a Rangers' stick and past Lundqvist.
Game Notes
Langenbrunner also had a pair of assists for New Jersey...The Devils won the regular-season series 5-2-1, with six of the eight games won by one-goal margins...Brodeur has made 31 straight starts for the Devils...Parise has four regulation goals in his last five games.
