It took 87 minutes of game time, but the New York Rangers defeated the Carolina Hurricanes 4–3 in double overtime Tuesday at Madison Square Garden.
Rangers veteran center Vincent Trocheck swatted in the game-winning goal at the 7:24 mark of the second overtime, sending a shot through the five-hole of Carolina goaltender Igor Shesterkin off a rebound.
As the lamp was lit, chaos ensued on the ice as the entire Rangers bench flocked to the boards to celebrate Trocheck's game-winner. One photo in particular perfectly captured the celebration, with Trocheck happily gazing into the crowd while being swarmed by teammates.
