The New York Rangers defeated the Philadelphia Flyers 5-4 in a shootout after a late comeback, with Mika Zibanejad tying the game and Artemi Panarin scoring twice, including the shootout winner. However, the victory was marred by the injury of captain J.T. Miller, who left the game favoring his right arm after a hit. Travis Sanheim contributed a goal and an assist for Philadelphia, while Samuel Ersson struggled in goal, leading to the Flyers’ fifth loss in six games. The Rangers, with this win, achieved only their fifth victory at home this season.
