NEW YORK _ How hot is Mika Zibanejad? The Rangers' No. 1 center worked his way into the franchise record books Monday night when he became the first Ranger to earn a point on 10 consecutive goals by the team. He had a goal and an assist in the 4-3 overtime loss to the Kings at Madison Square Garden.
Zibanejad's streak was ended when Adam McQuaid scored his first goal as a Ranger, unassisted at 9:15 of the third period. That goal broke a 2-2 tie and looked as though it would be the game-winner, until the Kings' Adrian Kempe tied it with his second goal of the game with 59.6 seconds left in regulation.
After Zibanejad hit the post on the first offensive rush of overtime, Tyler Toffoli went back the other way and beat Henrik Lundqvist to end the game after 25 seconds of the five-minute, sudden-death session.
