Henrik Lundqvist reaches milestone in Rangers' win over Blackhawks

NEW YORK _ If the Rangers are going to keep the rest of this season interesting, these are the kinds of games they need to win.

Playing their final home game before the All-Star break, the Rangers matched up against the rebuilding Chicago Blackhawks and beat them, 4-3, Thursday night at Madison Square Garden. The victory, their second straight and third in the last four games, got them back to NHL .500, at 20-20-7 (47 points). The Rangers will close out their pre-All Star break schedule Saturday night in Boston.

Henrik Lundqvist made 24 saves to earn his second straight victory and the 445th of his career, which moved him into a tie for sixth all time with Terry Sawchuk. Lundqvist is nine wins behind Curtis Joseph.
