Rangers score 6 goals in third period, rout Red Wings

DETROIT – The Rangers have had a problem holding onto big leads lately. So they tried something different on Thursday. They fell behind by a goal and then used a goal barrage to grab a win.

Tied entering the third period, the Rangers got five goals in the final 20 minutes to pull away from the Red Wings and open their two-game Father’s Weekend road trip with an 8-2 win over Detroit in Little Caesars Arena. The trip continues Saturday in Nashville against the Predators.

Adam Fox, Barclay Goodrow, Mika Zibanejad, Julien Gauthier, Libor Hajek and Jimmy Vesey broke the game open and ended the Rangers’ three-game winless streak. The eight goals were a season-high for the Rangers.
