After a late Rangers breakaway bid was broken up in front of the Canes net, Mikko Rantanen carried the puck the other way and played a give-and-go with Jackson Blake as they entered the offensive zone, then set up Svechnikov alone in front for a tap-in dagger with 31 seconds left in the frame.

Frederik Andersen made 22 saves, Andrei Svechnikov scored in the opening minute of the first period and the final minute of the second as the visiting Carolina Hurricanes pulled away for a 4-0 victory over the New York Rangers on Tuesday night.

The Carolina Hurricanes defeated the New York Rangers by a score of 4-0. Fueled by a 22-save shutout from Freddie Andersen and a three-point night from Andrei Svechnikov, the Hurricanes withstood a huge second-period push from the Rangers and got the win.
