Rangers collapse in third period, fall to Maple Leafs

NEW YORK _ Rangers coach David Quinn complained Friday that his team doesn't shoot enough, doesn't go to the net enough and doesn't get enough dirty goals.

"If you had judges put numbers up, we'd be at the top of the list of 10s when we score goals," Quinn said before the Rangers hosted the Toronto Maple Leafs at Madison Square Garden. "But we need more greasy goals. We need more goals that are more blue-collar. Hope one goes off a skate, goes off a behind, goes off a shin pad, but that only comes from people going to the net."

Well, the Rangers went to the net Friday and they scored goals because of it. But Alexandar Georgiev, who had seemed to be emerging as the Rangers' No. 1 goalie, allowed a couple of iffy goals 47 seconds apart in the third period, and the result was a third straight loss for the Blueshirts, who fell to the Maple Leafs, 6-3.
