NEW YORK — After they had rallied from two goals down on Tuesday to beat the Minnesota Wild at Madison Square Garden, the Rangers had every reason to believe that a one-goal deficit at home Thursday to the Central Division-leading Dallas Stars was not insurmountable.
And they were right.
K’Andre Miller’s buzzer-beater, a desperation shot through traffic that came off a rebound after his initial shot was blocked, got through a maze of bodies and got past goalie Jake Oettinger with less than a second left to tie it. Adam Fox won it in overtime after he took a pass from Artemi Panarin and shoveled a backhander past Oettinger 1:16 into the overtime to give the Rangers a 2-1 victory.
