Vincent Trocheck on this play: «I couldn't get the puck to my forehand. Tough angle for me. He was right on top of it. I could've shot it and buried it right into his chest or try to make a play.»

Despite the back-to-back losses, the Rangers will need to shake off this mini slump as they have five games facing them from February 1st through February 8th which include a run in with the Vegas Golden Knights.
