Henrik Lundqvist turned aside 26 shots Tuesday to help the New York Rangers climb back into their Eastern Conference Second Round series with a 4-1 Game 3 win at Madison Square Garden.
With the Rangers entering the game down 2-0 in the series, Lundqvist came up with key saves when his team needed him most - including an impressive denial of Clarke MacArthur on a rebound late in the third.
The victory was his 60th career Stanley Cup Playoff win, making Lundqvist the 15th goaltender in NHL history to do so, tying Turk Broda for 14th place overall.
The teams stay in New York for Game 4 as the Rangers look to even their series 2-2.
