US stars Modano, Tkachuk reach milestones in wins
(Mon, 01 Dec 2008 01:06:01 PST)
American stars Mike Modano and Keith Tkachuk reached two more milestones -- and helped give their last-place teams big victories. Modano broke a tie on a power play with 2:21 left in Dallas' 4-3 home victory over Edmonton on Sunday night. The 38-year-old became the 31st NHL player to reach 1,300 points and pushed his record for goals by a U.S.-born player to 537.
Rangers Team Report
(Mon, 01 Dec 2008 00:17:46 PST)
The schedule gets eminently more difficult this week after the Rangers required two shootout wins to go a pedestrian 3-2-0 in five straight games against teams with records below .500.
A home game Wednesday against the surging Penguins—who are 9-2-1 in their last 12 games and fresh off a Sidney Crosby hat trick against New Jersey Saturday—kicks off a three-game string this week in which the Rangers also will face Montreal and Calgary—a trio that has posted a combined record of 41-28-8 this season.
In other words, the Rangers need to be much better in all facets than the rancid performance on home ice in a 4-0 home loss to Florida on Sunday. They had won six of their previous eight games, albeit with four of those victories coming in shootouts.
