Devils fans showed up in numbers to Madison Square Garden on Monday night to see it.
Their flourishing, Metropolitan-leading Devils marched into enemy territory, winners of 15 of their last 16 games, to take on the slipping Rangers for a power-struggle battle after years of simmering in their shadow. Their team did not disappoint, but the Rangers did as they allowed another multi-goal lead to vanish in an alarm-bell-sounding 5-3 loss — their third in a row.
Fans in red even felt confident enough to taunt Shesterkin, echoing his name throughout the lower bowl as he gave up three goals on 15 shots at one point before ultimately allowing four on 37. The Devils’ signature ‘Woo’s!’, which multiply when a game is leaning heavily in their favor, seemed to mock the Rangers.
After Artemi Panarin snapped a 12-game streak without a goal less than a minute and a half into the game, Devils goalie Vitek Vanecek fumbled a Jacob Trouba shot and Mika Zibanejad jammed home the rebound to give the Rangers a 2-0 lead roughly three minutes after the initial puck dropped. Once the Devils stuffed the puck back into the Rangers’ zone, it popped out to Yegor Sharangovich in the slot for a turnaround shot at 13:25 of the first period. The Devils then doubled their score off goals from Jack Hughes and Michael McLeod in the second period without an answer from the Rangers.
