The Rangers’ 50th game of the season was played in front of a COVID-restricted 50% capacity crowd at Ottawa’s Canadian Tire Centre on Sunday night.
It was also the 50th victory in 79 career games for Igor Shesterkin as the Rangers beat the Senators, 2-1.
Shesterkin didn’t have to make 50 saves. Twenty-nine were quite enough as the Rangers won in their first game in Canada since before Thanksgiving.
