The IIHF confirms the ice surfaces for the Milan Olympics will be shorter than a typical NHL building -- 196.85 ft. x 85.3 ft -- and defends the decision: "The differences in rink specifications are insignificant, and should not impact either the safety or quality of game play."

“You be the judge,” Mike Sullivan said. The #NYR were frustrated at the officiating after an OTL to Vegas: https://t.co/ft9umuAHgQ

Sullivan called this one of Lafrenière’s “better games that he’s had all season for us.” Added: “The goal he got was a goal-scorer's goal, but it was more than just that. I thought he was around the net. He was winning puck battles. He was in the battle areas. He was challenging

#NYR coach Mike Sullivan was clearly frustrated after the game — “What gave it away?” — particularly about the two roughing calls on Borgen and Howden with less than 2 minutes left in regulation. With Vegas pulling its goalie, that changed it from a 6v5 situation to 5v4. “There

J.T. Miller on how he feels about a crazy week in which the #NYR played four games in six days, all against teams that made the playoffs last season, and came away with 6 out of 8 possible points: "We're getting rewarded by getting team points. We're hanging in there. This is a

Golden Knights locker room is playing my older son’s most-requested song of late: “Jingle Bell Rock”

#NYR lose an O-zone faceoff with about 15 seconds left in OT, Shea Theodore makes a nice bank pass off the boards and Jack Eichel outraces everyone. He finishes to give Vegas a 3-2 win. Rangers get a point for the second straight day but were less than a minute away from more.

Looked like Marner tripped Robertson, but no call. #NYR haven't had a PP through three-plus periods tonight.

To OT we go... Third time in the last four games for #NYR

Vegas finally breaks through after pushing all period. Tomas Hertl buries a rebound with 51.3 seconds remaining and we're tied at 2-2.

And there's another on an Ivan Barbashev breakaway. He tried to go 5-hole and Quick closed the door. #NYR

Feels like Quick is going to have to make a few big saves if #NYR is going to hold on here, and he just did on Brandon Saad in front. Vegas making its push but Rangers are managing it so far.

Soucy makes a key play to get back and get his stick on a pass attempt from Eichel to stop a a Vegas 2-on-1, then a minute or so later, Sheary shakes free on a breakaway and Hart makes the save. Lots of action.

Check out these second-period stats for #NYR: SOG: 17-6 Attempts: 25-13 HDCF: 11-3 👀 Don't see 11 high dangers in a period very often...

Cuylle with a shorthanded chance at the buzz that's saved by Hart. What a period from the #NYR, who came alive and will take a 2-1 lead into the third.

Panarin called for high sticking with 50 seconds left in the period, so the first PP of the game goes for Vegas.

J.T. Miller follows his own rebound for a backhanded chance that Hart makes a great lunging save on, then Zibanejad shakes free for another shot off the rush that's saved. It's like a different #NYR team from the first period to the second.

Chmelař with a nice play to get a shot off in traffic, then gets into with Cole Reinhardt and both get called for roughing. The rookie has been quite noticeable this evening. Looks like he belongs. #NYR

Alexis Lafrenière had only three points in his previous 12 games, but he has two already in this one, including a wicked wrister just now from the right circle that clanged in off the bar and gives the #NYR a 2-1 lead.

Mika Zibanejad hangs around the net and gets rewarded with a rebound that may have hit Alexis Lafrenière first before popping out to Mika. That’ll tie it at 1-1 as the #NYR look like they have new life.
