The Rangers simply got goalied in this game against the Ducks, from their side of the ice and the other.
Jaroslav Halak is still searching for his first win in a red, white and blue jersey after allowing a couple soft goals that put the Rangers behind the eight ball in their 3-2 loss to the Pacific Division-trailing Ducks on Thursday night at Honda Center. It put a damper on what was otherwise a successful road trip out west in which the Rangers compiled a 2-1-1 record.
At the other end of the ice, Halak was off and on — but the Ducks capitalized whenever he was off. The second period was particularly all over the place for Halak, who is now 0-5-1 after the loss. He denied Anaheim around the crease whenever traffic built up, in addition to stopping one-time Blueshirt Frank Vatrano on a shorthanded breakaway.Rangers’ Ryan Reaves trade will benefit all parties
From the boards, Ducks defenseman Dmitry Kulikov flung the puck at the Rangers net and it somehow trickled behind Halak 39 seconds into the second period. Less than five minutes later, Troy Terry sniped one top corner on Halak to extend the Ducks’ lead to two goals. Braden Schneider scored his second goal in as many games to pull the Rangers within one at the end of the second period, but the visitors couldn’t net the equalizer in the third despite outshooting the Ducks 17-2 in the final 20 minutes. Vincent Trocheck even whiffed on a loose puck off a rebound on a wide-open net to add to the Rangers’ troubles.
