 BOSTON (AP) - The New York Rangers needed a win more than the Boston Bruins, and they played like it. Coming alive in front of a friendly road crowd when Thomas Pock tied the game with 1:40 left in regulation, the Rangers beat Boston 2-1 in a shootout on Saturday to solidify their hold on the Eastern Conference's seventh playoff spot.
"For us, there's no easy game right now," said Pock, who scored his first goal since Oct. 10. "Every one of the games is a playoff game."
Henrik Lundqvist stopped 35 shots in regulation and five more in overtime, when the Bruins had a power play for 1:31. He also stopped two of three Boston attempts in the shootout while Michael Nylander and Jaromir Jagr scored for the Rangers.
